The Joy Luck Club, by Amy Tan, is about four Chinese mothers and their daughters. Each mother tells a story about their childhood and about coming to the US. All of the daughters talk about growing up as a Chinese-American and learning the Chinese culture as they grow up. These four moms start up "The Joy Luck Club" in which they play Mahjong. The stories about these women revolve around playing this game and learning about each other and themselves.
I recommend this book to mothers and daughters because you learn a lot about mother and daughter relationships when reading this book. This book would be a good read for girls who are the first generations born in the US.
