An insightful, moving coming-of-age tale., With unblinking honesty and raw vulnerability [and] presented in full-color splendor, her energetic style mirrors the constant motion of her adolescent self, navigating the peripatetic turbulence toward adulthood., "This heartfelt memoir from an author who shares her honest, personal experiences. An insightful, moving coming-of-age tale." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "A poignant and unvarnished depiction of immigration--both the heartache and the rewards." -- School Library Journal (starred review) "With unblinking honesty and raw vulnerability [and] presented in full-color splendor, her energetic style mirrors the constant motion of her adolescent self, navigating the peripatetic turbulence toward adulthood." -- ALA Booklist (starred review) "Touching and subtly humorous, this emotive memoir is as much about the steadfast bond between a mother and daughter as it is about the challenges of being an immigrant in America." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Ha successfully brings to life the wide range of emotions that both tell the story and provide evidence that the comic medium has been a healing force for her and perhaps could be for readers who have walked similar paths." -- Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books "Ha effectively uses the comic book format to recall her own memories of dislocation, explore a testy mother-daughter relationship and ultimately chronicle a poignant search for identity." -- San Francisco Chronicle "A powerful memoir that not only shows what it's like to be in a new town or a new school, but what it's like to move to an entirely new country! It's an amazing journey that is sure to promote empathy with readers." -- Jerry Craft, author of New Kid "Incredibly honest, poignant, and ultimately triumphant, Almost American Girl is a treasure." -- Michael Cho, author of Shoplifter "Robin's story is both utterly her own and deeply resonant for anyone who's felt lost in the world and fought to carve out a place for themselves." -- Hazel Newlevant, author of No Ivy League
