Fresh Off the Boat meets Junie B. Jones in this first novel in an
adorable new chapter book series about Mindy Kim, a young Asian American
girl who is starting a snack business!
Mindy Kim just wants three things:
- A puppy!
- To fit in at her new school
- For her dad to be happy again
But, getting all three of the things on her list is a lot trickier than
she thought it would be. On her first day of school, Mindy's school
snack of dried seaweed isn't exactly popular at the lunch table.
Luckily, her new friend, Sally, makes the snacks seem totally delicious
to Mindy's new classmates, so they decide to start the Yummy Seaweed
Business to try and raise money for that puppy!
When another student decides to try and sabotage their business, Mindy
loses more than she bargained for--and wonders if she'll ever fit in.
Will Mindy be able to overcome her uncertainty and find the courage to
be herself?
