From Yangsook Choi comes an empowering picture book about a child learning a new language to keep in touch with an old friend.
Today is the day I'll make friends.
At least, that's what I promise myself.
Jihun recently moved to the United States. In his new classroom, he receives an assignment to write a letter to his best friend—but he's not sure how it will turn out. First off, he's still learning English. Second, he doesn't have any friends at school yet. What's more, his best friend back in Korea can't read.
Fueled by wonderful memories of his former home, Jihun uses his creativity to craft a letter for his best friend, Oto. The result is nothing short of extraordinary and opens a door for Jihun to make new friends.
