After emigrating to the U.S. from South Korea, four year old Young Ju and her family struggle with learning English and adapting to life in America. Her parents, particularly her father, dislike how Young Ju is not acting like ‘a Korean girl’ as she gets used to the American lifestyle. To top it off Young Ju’s father doesn’t act like how he used to… to the point of becoming violent. Can Young Ju’s family keep going like this…..?
The second I started reading this book, I was hooked (I even stayed up part of the night just to finish it!). It made me feel mad, happy, sad, and a whole array of other emotions. All in all just a really fantastic book.
