How will a ship's crew RETURN home without any money? When did the young ayah last see her OWN family? And why, oh why, did the sailor write WET PAINT in a young girl's diary? Nannies and sailors taken 4,000 miles away to England to work...it's the same SORRY tale. Often ABANDONED, they have to find their own way across the sea, back home to India! It's upsetting. It's shocking. It's breaking our hearts. What are we to DO? Well, here are stories - a whole SHEAF of them about AYAHS in a foreign land and the Indian crew of LASCARS on ships, questioning why the British don't treat these people kindly. Asking to give them the home, the care and the freedom they deserve. But is ANYONE listening? Are YOU? "

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Moving to America turns H&à's life inside out. For all the 10 years of her life, H&à has only known Saigon: the thrills of its markets, the joy of its traditions, the warmth of her friends close by, and the beauty of her very own papaya tree. But now the Vietnam War has reached her home. H&à and her family are forced to flee as Saigon falls, and they board a ship headed toward hope. In America, H&à discovers the foreign world of Alabama: the coldness of its strangers, the dullness of its food, the strange shape of its landscape, and the strength of her very own family. This is the moving story of one girl's year of change, dreams, grief, and healing as she journeys from one country to another, one life to the next.
