Their uncle is a resistance worker. The overall book is about how the family endures the challenges of living under Japanese rule, the uncle gone into hiding, and even a presumably dead son.

My rating:2
The reason I chose this rating is because the book overall, was funny at points but boring and confusing. The parts that are supposed to be surprises are expected by the reader usually]]> 2016-05-17 16:33:54 UTC https://padlet.com/mhulme/mowj7jn0qulf/wish/111284947 mhulme https://padlet.com/mhulme/mowj7jn0qulf/wish/111285112 Seesaw Girl, is about Jade Blossom a Korean girl wanting to discover the what is outside the walls of her home. But when her sister ,Graceful Willow, gets married Willow can only roam her new house with her new husband. Desperate to see her sister again Jade leaves her house, but when her sister does not want to see her she realizes that she needs to mature. She is still determined to discover the outside world, yet no idea how to do it... 

The rating for Seesaw Girl is a 1 out of 4 we give it a 1 because it does not pull the audience in and it was confusing]]> 2016-05-17 16:34:29 UTC https://padlet.com/mhulme/mowj7jn0qulf/wish/111285112 aacosta8 https://padlet.com/mhulme/mowj7jn0qulf/wish/111288223 Kite fighters about two brothers named Kee-sup and young-sup. What they do is fly and build kites and fly kites, but in the book young-sup is the better at flying and kee-sup is a better builder,but in Korea it should  be the opposite. And they find a way to find put young-sup in the kite fighting competition.Then when young-sup got to the compaction he met a boy that had won two years in a row. So at the end of the competition the two boys were left then young-sup started believing him self then he won the battle and his dad finally cheered for young-sup 

My rating is a 3 and a 1/2 because I thought the ending would be a little more existing. ]]> 2016-05-17 16:46:05 UTC https://padlet.com/mhulme/mowj7jn0qulf/wish/111288223 ggarcia20 https://padlet.com/mhulme/mowj7jn0qulf/wish/111293150 A Single Shard is about a small homeless boy named Tree-Ear. Tree-Ear wants to become a master potter like Min. Min is a master potter that Tree-Ear admires. When Tree-Ear faces many problems he must travel a very long journey to prove that he is worthy of Min's teachings.

I chose to rate a single 3 out of 4 stars because it was a great book but there were some parts that I couldn't understand, also there were some cliffhangers leaving me with questions.]]> 2016-05-17 17:05:19 UTC https://padlet.com/mhulme/mowj7jn0qulf/wish/111293150 hle12 https://padlet.com/mhulme/mowj7jn0qulf/wish/111500589 Shorter link for this webpage: http://bit.ly/1Tea7j0]]> 2016-05-18 16:30:20 UTC https://padlet.com/mhulme/mowj7jn0qulf/wish/111500589 mhulme https://padlet.com/mhulme/mowj7jn0qulf/wish/111504603 -Linda Sue Park]]> 2016-05-18 16:50:32 UTC https://padlet.com/mhulme/mowj7jn0qulf/wish/111504603 mhulme https://padlet.com/mhulme/mowj7jn0qulf/wish/111505570 -Linda Sue Park]]> 2016-05-18 16:54:44 UTC https://padlet.com/mhulme/mowj7jn0qulf/wish/111505570 hle12 https://padlet.com/mhulme/mowj7jn0qulf/wish/111505865 for additional information on Park, go to: http://goo.gl/vfB7Tr]]> 2016-05-18 16:56:09 UTC https://padlet.com/mhulme/mowj7jn0qulf/wish/111505865 dhernandez46 https://padlet.com/mhulme/mowj7jn0qulf/wish/111681661 Linda sue park in speared people by the way she writes.  Linda Sue chose to write for younger audiences because she wants to inspire them to write book of their own and soon they can inspire people and the chain would go on and on.]]> 2016-05-19 14:52:38 UTC https://padlet.com/mhulme/mowj7jn0qulf/wish/111681661 mhulme https://padlet.com/mhulme/mowj7jn0qulf/wish/111892369 Some trends I saw while Linda Sue wrote was that she used formal dialogue. An example of this is, ¨Brother, I know it was wrong of me..." (Park, 1999)  Also In My Name was Keoko, ¨You know my name, not my story" And In A Single Shard," Tree-ear! Have you hungered well today
And Lastly with The Kite Fighters, ¨...Elder brother...¨
In A Single Shard  some dialogue is "Tree-ear! Have you hungered well today." These quotes prove that Linda Sue uses formal tone in her books, some more formal than others but she still writes consistently threw out her currere. ]]> 2016-05-20 16:25:21 UTC https://padlet.com/mhulme/mowj7jn0qulf/wish/111892369 ggarcia20 https://padlet.com/mhulme/mowj7jn0qulf/wish/111892631 http://ow.ly/b5dv300pPrG]]> 2016-05-20 16:27:08 UTC https://padlet.com/mhulme/mowj7jn0qulf/wish/111892631 aacosta8 https://padlet.com/mhulme/mowj7jn0qulf/wish/111897511 Her parents inspired her to write the books she has now. This is because her parents were immigrates from Korea and then her parents talked to her about it and it seemed very interesting. So Linda Sue starting writing about the culture that not many people know about. ]]> 2016-05-20 16:55:06 UTC https://padlet.com/mhulme/mowj7jn0qulf/wish/111897511
