Krista and Jason have been best friends since preschool. It never mattered that he was a boy with reddish brown hair and she was "the Korean girl" at school. Now in fifth grade, everyone in their class is preparing their Heritage Month projects. Jason has always loved Krista's Korean family, and particularly her mom's cooking, but Krista is conflicted about being her school's "Korean Ambassador." She's also worried about asking her intimidating grandma to teach the class how to cook their traditional kim-bap. Combine that with her new friends pulling her away from Jason, and Krista has a lot to deal with this year!
Review
"Author Ahn writes authentically about the struggle of assimilation while maintaining cultural tradition... A sympathetic portrayal of a typical 11-year-old trying to fit in, with a bit of Korean flair." - Kirkus Reviews
"Ahn's breezy chapters introduce readers to Krista's lively and interesting family and offer vivid descriptions of recipes. Likable, sweet Krista's struggles will likely resonate with young readers striving to make their own way, and kind Jason's friendship stands out as exemplary. This approachable, inviting novel strikes a nice balance between emphasizing the importance of embracing one's culture and staying true to oneself." -- Booklist Online
Book Description
Krista's never been to Korea, but when she eats kim-bap, she knows she's Korean.
