Ginny is sure the new girl in her second-grade class will be her best friend. After all, Stephanie is Chinese, just like Ginny. But Ginny soon discovers some puzzling things about Stephanie: she doesn't like Chinese food, she hates her straight black hair, and even more surprisingly, her parents are not Chinese. Drawing on Virginia Loh's real life story, the authors poignantly capture Ginny's dilemma as she navigates between her culture and her friendship.
