This was a fascinating look at what one woman went through to escape North Korea. I really recommend it.

This was a good read. Pretty dry. The sections about sites like Grimes Graves and Skara Brae were fascinating!

I'm a decade late to the party but this was such a great graphic novel. Both in terms of the 1st generation experience and how parables were interwoven. The artwork was punchy and fun. My kids go to a public school with a special Chinese emphasis (they take Chinese once a week and there's a special Chinese classroom). I wouldn't be surprised if the upper grades read this GN. Still a little too complex for my guys, but they would love the story of the Monkey King!

This started slow but ended up being fascinating. The chapters on bathing and cleanliness were DISGUSTING! I loved them!
