    touching story reflecting the truth of rural west

    I was born in north shanxi, not far from ningxia. In my childhood memories, many parts are covered with sand dunes and sand storms. However, as child always does, these are also bright yellow happy memories. The story reflects my childhood memory quite well. Although my hometown was not as poor as yongquan county, but i share many experiences with the story. Some of my child friends and my ownrelatives are still working in the frontier of poverty alleviation in my hometown. They are the most diligent, brave people i have ever met.
