Brief summary (a short paragraph is sufficient): This is a short story about the experiences of a Chinese family during an earthquake in San Francisco in the early 1900's. There is no resolution to the story, but is very true to life.
Activities: Give the students each a small blank book (made out of folded paper) and have them write and illustrate their own book about their experience of an earthquake. Talk to them to help them process traumatized feelings from the earthquake.
