The Tiger Mother, Amy Chua and her book named Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother are famous all over the world, especially in America and China.

Amy Chua is a Chinese American, born in the USA to middle-class Chinese parents who moved to the US from China. She was born in the year of the tiger, so she called herself Tiger Mother. Amy Chua is very famous because of her parenting styles (养育方式) . She has two daughters, Sophia and Louisa. She is very strict with them.

From the moment her daughters were born, she had set targets for them. She decided that the two girls would play instruments, Sophia the piano and Louisa the violin, and what is more, they would be the best at it. At the same time, they had to be the first in study.

The two girls always get an A in each lesson. Sophia could read books and began to play the piano when she was 3 years old. Once, Louisa got the second place in a maths test when she was in Grade 5. After that, Amy Chua made Louisa do 20 pieces of paper and there were 100 maths problems on each paper. A week later, Louisa got the first place and she is the first all the time from then on.
