Overview
Middle school is brutal on the best days. It’s even worse for Chris Choi.
Two years ago, during what was supposed to be a normal family vacation to the US, Chris’s life changed forever: Just before their flight home, his mom told him that she would go back to South Korea by herself . . . and Chris would stay in America with his aunt and uncle for a chance at a better life.
Fast forward to the fall of 1999. Chris has spent the past two years trying to erase every bit of his Korean past. He’s learned all the lingo. He knows every song lyric. He’s even mastered his English and gotten rid of his Korean accent. He’s determined to fit in—to embrace his American future.
So why does he still get bullied for the way he looks? Why do the racist jokes still find him? And why does “American” feel like a costume that doesn’t quite fit?
