Elizabeth Tang, 4th Grade

My name is Elizabeth Tang, and I wrote about the possessions I cherish, my special coins. My bronze coins date back to 1851, and they've been the secret family treasure ever since. As the only treasures that survived in a family such as mine in China, it is a great honor for me to be able to possess them. I was desperate to know truly who I am and where my family came from. On the sunny day when those shining bronze coins came into my life, I knew that I no longer had to search in a wandering circle for my true identity. I know now that my identity is replete with love.
