Stella: On The Edge Of Popularity

by Lauren Lee.

Stella, a Korean American pre-teen, is caught between two cultures. At home, she must be a good Korean girl, but at school, Stella is American, aching to be popular and fit in. Can she balance cultural values and peer pressure . . . and still be herself? A realistic story with which any 1.5 or 2nd generation American will readily identitfy.

"Well-developed characters and a credible plot will hold the interest of readers."—School Library Journal. "An excellent job of detailing the identity conflicts of young Korean American girls."—Asian Week. "A must-read for parents and their children."—Korea Central Daily News.
