pickThis one is heavy on the heart. I am ashamed to admit that I was woefully unaware of the genocide in Cambodia. After reading this, I read up on the same and I wonder why we as kids are not taught about this in history.

pickI found this book about the Cambodian genocide in the 1970‘s to be captivating and inspiring. It‘s astounding what people will do to other people, and the lengths people go to to stay alive in the face of it. This book really brought the plight of refugees to life. This book was provided to me by the publisher as part of the LibraryThing Early Reviewers Program. #ARCApril
pickThis is an intense, heartbreaking novel that shows the inner strength many possess, along with how infected with hate some can become. Under the Naga Tail puts a human face on genocide, war and the struggles of refugees, events that are still repeated around the world almost 50 years after the horrible events in Cambodia. It is well written and gripping, and the love within this family is not only powerful, but inspirational.
pickOverall, this book was incredibly moving and beautifully written. It‘s definitely worth reading for anyone interested in learning about the Cambodian Genocide or for those looking for inspiring stories of courage and bravery. Highly recommend.
pickI can‘t imagine how all these families were able to go on day after day not knowing what was going to happen to them or if they were even going to survive. I cannot begin to know what these families have been through and the strength it took Mae to relive all the horror for James to put into this book. I wonder how James felt hearing what his father and family went through. I am thankful to both of them for sharing this story.
