Becoming an Eagle is about the an immigrant's quest for love, travel, food, and identity in the United States.
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN A HONG KONG GIRL MOVES TO THE UNITED STATES:
A GRAPHIC MEMOIR
Follow Flora's journey of falling in love with a foreign man, her grief of moving away from her hometown, and her finding acceptance and a sense of home in America. Flora unravels the layers of emotions of relocating three times in a decade — from being a Hong Kong city girl to experiencing the gentle warmth and hospitality of Minnesota Nice, later adapting to the laid-back island life of Maui, Hawaii, and eventually readjusting back to Hong Kong.
In her endearing voice and her humorous comics, Flora presents an honest story of being an immigrant in America: the desire to fit in, the resilience to try new things, the humbleness to start from the bottom, and the joy of pursuing the American Dream by starting her own business.
By the final page, you will feel more curious about other cultures and more courageous knowing that starting over can lead to belonging — wherever you are.
Reviews
“This book would make a wonderful gift for anyone in transition to a new country, for someone navigating intercultural relationships, or for immigrants and third-culture kids learning to find their place in unfamiliar spaces. It’s also an eye-opening read for American audiences who want to better understand and celebrate the stories of those around them. Flora doesn’t just tell her story. She helps others feel seen through it."
Ben Griffin, CEO of LINC, Pastor and Storyteller
“A genuinely touching story that manages to encapsulate the experience of an immigrant in a way that is devoid of sarcasm and is plainly enjoyable to read. The photos and illustrations are adorable and surprisingly enlightening. The protagonist is very likable because she is a woman of action who just goes out and tries new things.”
