A Chinese Orphan In America

By Marie-Laure De Shazer

Qian is only seven years old when he arrives in Chicago. He has new parents and a new country. To his great amazement, his adoptive parents change his Chinese name to James. Since his Chinese name "Qian Wang" means "Money King", his American parents are afraid that his schoolmates bully him. Qian does not know why his biological parents abandoned him. Intrigued by his story, his adoptive mother decides to contact the director of the orphanage to help her make an investigation about Qian's biological parents. Most Chinese adoptees that she meets are girls and their parents rejected them because they wanted a boy. Qian is a healthy boy. Did Qian's biological parents really abandon him? Why did the orphanage send him to the United States?
