The Rules Of the game


Significance
This chapter is crucial to the story because you know about Waverly jong’s mother how she escaped her wedding and all the pressure she got when she was a kid. Now her daughter is getting the same pressure her mom had because she is a master of chess.

Perspective
Amy Tan was born in America and had parents who immigrated from china; she failed to meet her mother’s expectations by becoming a pianist and a doctor. So this book is a lot like her life story such as Ying-Yang St.clair being a tom boy and not a proper lady.

Evidence
In china all the things like burning the five evil’s, Getting set for marriage when you are three all these things are in old Chinese culture.

Connections
Having extremely high expectations I have seen a lot like at swim team I here mothers well at her children to go faster or well at them for doing something with there stroke acting like there coach.

Supposition
The only thing I would change is to put about the author on the back because I had to search the inter net just to find out who she is. Did you know Any Tan has Lyme disease?
