Our halting English frustrates the teacher but never ourselves — we know what we’re trying to say. We color and paint and draw and listen to a story read aloud about a missing princess and the poor peasant boy who chooses to brave horrific dangers in order to find her. All the girls want to be the princess, all the boys want to be the peasant. I just want to be here in America, in Ohio, in Cleveland, living on Salem Avenue four houses from my grandparents, and walking to Union School every morning holding my grandfather’s right hand. In other words, I want nothing more. But maybe three things:
