In the novel "Moon Shadow" by Grace Lin, the character Moon Shadow refers to America as "the Land of the Golden Mountain." This term reflects the allure and promise of prosperity that America holds for many immigrants, particularly those from China, who seek a better life. The name encapsulates both the hopes and challenges faced by those who venture to this new land.
In "Dragonwings" by Laurence Yep, Moon Shadow is taken to America by his father, Windrider. Windrider has immigrated to San Francisco to pursue his dream of building and flying a dragonfly-shaped airplane. Moon Shadow joins him to experience life in America and to strengthen their father-son bond.
