Book blog : The Great Wall Of Lucy Wu

I read  “The Great Wall Of Lucy Wu” by Wendy Wan - long Shang. The book was about a girl named Lucy Wu which she loved to play basketball. She was thinking about being the 6th grade captain for the basketball team but had many obstacles along the way like Sloane. Sloane also wanted to be captain for the basketball team but didn’t even play basketball. She was very rude to Lucy which was one of the problems for being captain. She also had an older sister and brother. Her sister “Regina” was the oldest and they didn’t get along very well. They had lots of fights but she eventually went to college. She also had an older brother named Kevin. Since he was really smart and good at math he had no problems and Lucy and him rarely got into fights. Another problem was her parents wanted her to go to Chinese school. She was Chinese but wasn’t the best at speaking it. In fact she preferred American food over Chinese food  but yet the rest of her family preferred Chinese food,so she was different from the rest of her family. Not only was Chinese school a problem but she thought she was gonna have her own room when Regina left but her plans were ruined when she found out that she had to share her room with her grandmother”Yi Po” that was coming over for a while. Yi Po was very nice and caring. Lucy really didn’t like that fact that she had to share a room with her grandmother cause she thought it would be awkward but she ended up loving Yi Po and got to be captain of the 6th grade basketball team! My favorite character was Yi Po because she was a nice grandmother to Lucy and always comforted her when she needed it. Overall I would rate this book a 9/10 👌🏽
