F Is for Fabuloso

(3) 4-6 Jin-Ha fails her math test, but her Korean immigrant parents believe her when she says an F is a good mark. Guilty and desperate to make up her grade, she gets tutoring from Grant Hartwig, a hockey player with family expectations to live up to as well. Cross-cultural confusions are delicately portrayed, the pressures Jin-Ha faces are realistic, and the tentative junior-high attraction is sweet.
