Yes. I am still in touch with many people from my childhood. Unfortunately, Not Wu chun Mei.

Dear Dr. Mah, I won’t see your response because I’m not giving you a real email address. I have my own personal reasons. I just read your book Falling Leaves. I just wanted to say thank you so much for writing this book; your autobiography. I truly appreciate your book and your gift from our Lord. I’m an American white women and despite our differences of birth, ‘rank’, privileges’, etc – we as women have suffered the same terrible childhood abuses. Mine was from my own blood mother and father. I forgive them. I have learned, that living a peaceful and loving life “……throw’s burning coals upon them….” Thank you for bringing child abuse to the forefront.
Thank you and God bless you,
Shelley

oops pressed the wrong button anywho, I just want to thank you for writing your story. I, like you, have always loved school. It is where I truly excel. I always hope I will finally be accpted if I keep working hard. Although I am constantly called a nerd and made fun of for reading, I keep at it in hopes of a brighter future. Once again, I thank you. I am also sorry for your harsh childhood, but I am sure you have turned out to be an incredible woman. It is people like you who inspire young adults, and anyone else for that matter, to keep hope and keep trying. Thank you!

Dear Adeline Yen Mah,
My name is Anna and I am a Sophmore in highschool. I just finished Chinese Cinderella after reading it for two days. I was so moved by your story and thought I could relate to you during many parts of the book. I am currently suffering from depression and books are my way out. Just like you did, I use them as an escape to other worlds. I become the characters and lead an entirely different life. Al though my family is not cruel to me like yours was, which i am thoroughly sorry about , they always seem like they don’t care. I am the youngest of three children and feel like my older siblings are always the subjects of my parents attention. I know many kids may think this though but it truly is hard with what I am going through right now.
