The Red Scarf Girl is about a girl named JI Li Jiang and it is about her being in the cultural revolution. How she went through so many people to being her friends to writing bad things about her and her family because her grandfather was a landlord. Having her dad being kept away because he wouldn't admit to a crime. She was very smart girl and loved her family very much and at some points she was in good clubs because she believed in chairman Mao. But in other cases when she wanted to help her family in these tuff times she would be kicked out of clubs because she was helping a family who went against chairman Mao. People called the Red Guards went through everything in there hose 2 times and practically ooh everything away. But in the end JiLi Jiang learned to fight for her family and do the best she can.

The Red Scarf Girl is not my favorite book. It is good of course, but i think she might get into a little to much detail about the bloody parts. I like the fact that the author is talking about her life and how she learns to fight for her family.

Although it was hard to read some of the parts because the things the family had to see and endure, it was a good read because it made me thankful to be living in a free country.

No one deserves to go through what Ji Li Jiang and her family experienced but it was inspiring to know that someone can grow up from such a past a have a successful future.

It shows that we should not give up so easily, no matter how hard. The book had strong themes of perseverence and faith.
