The new kid in school needs a new name! Or does she?
Being the new kid in school is
hard enough, but what about when nobody can pronounce your name? Having
just moved from Korea, Unhei is anxious that American kids will like
her. So instead of introducing herself on the first day of school, she
tells the class that she will choose a name by the following week. Her
new classmates are fascinated by this no-name girl and decide to help
out by filling a glass jar with names for her to pick from. But while
Unhei practices being a Suzy, Laura, or Amanda, one of her classmates
comes to her neighborhood and discovers her real name and its special
meaning. On the day of her name choosing, the name jar has mysteriously
disappeared. Encouraged by her new friends, Unhei chooses her own Korean
name and helps everyone pronounce it—Yoon-Hey.
