A poignant young adult graphic memoir about a Korean-American girl
who uses fandom and art-making to overcome racist bullying. Perfect
for fans of American Born Chinese and Almost American Girl! Sarah
has always struggled to fit in. Born in South Korea and adopted at
birth by a white couple, she grows up in a rural community with few
Asian neighbors. People whisper in the supermarket. Classmates
bully her. She has trouble containing her anger in these
moments--but through it all, she has her art. She's always been a
compulsive drawer, and when she discovers anime, her hobby becomes
an obsession. Though drawing and cosplay offer her an escape, she
still struggles to connect with others. And in high school, the
bullies are louder and meaner. Sarah's bubbling rage is threatening
to burst.
