Answer: D-willing participant with significant authority to tell the story

Step-by-step explanation:

Homesick is based on the life of the author Jean Fritz as she navigated her life in China as her parents worked YMCA. The story goes from Hankow to Shanghai and to the United States where she eventually finds a sense of belonging.

As the narrator of her own story, she was not only a willing participant but also one who had significant authority to tell it.
