This is a collection of essays describing the personal experiences and feelings of children from extremely impoverished families. The authors are a group of high school students aged 16 or 17. However, this seemingly ordinary collection of essays holds a special significance. The authors are from the Hongzhi Class of Beijing Guanchumen High School, where their school uniforms bear several prominent characters: "Beijing Guanchumen High School Hongzhi Class." (The Hongzhi Class was the first of its kind in China, established by Beijing Guanchumen High School in 1995, specifically to admit academically talented students from financially disadvantaged backgrounds at no cost.)
