Then Junie’s history teacher assigns a project and Junie decides to interview her grandparents, learning about their unbelievable experiences as kids during the Korean War. Junie comes to admire her grandma’s fierce determination to overcome impossible odds, and her grandpa’s unwavering compassion during wartime. And as racism becomes more pervasive at school, Junie taps into the strength of her ancestors and finds the courage to do what is right. *Finding Junie Kim* is a reminder that within all of us lies the power to overcome hardship and emerge triumphant. **Asian/Pacific American Award for Literature Honor Book** **A Bank Street Best Children’s Book of the Year** **Included in NPR’s 2021 Books We Love List** **2021 Nerdy Award Winner**
