Description
"An omnibus edition of the juvenile biographies Last Airlift: A Vietnamese Orphan's Rescue from War and One Step at a Time: A Vietnamese Child Finds Her Way. Eight-year-old Tuyet, whose left leg was twisted and stunted from polio, was evacuated from her Saigon orphanage on the last Canadian airlift for at-risk children when the city fell to North Vietnam on April 25, 1975. Adopted by the Morris family in Brantford, Ontario, she faced urgent corrective ankle surgery with little time to adjust to a new home and language. Based on personal interviews and enhanced with archival photographs and an index."--,Provided by publisher.
