Summary |
"A semi-autobiographical middle-grade graphic novel about a Canadian-Chinese boy who feels invisible at home and in school but longs to stand out"-- Provided by publisher. |
|
Kevin Lee is having a really bad week. Although he lives in a crowded Toronto apartment above the family's alterations and dry-cleaning store, he mostly goes unnoticed. School isn't exactly an oasis either--being one of the few Asian kids makes for some unwelcome attention. But when Kevin's class plans a trip to Thrill Planet, a spectacular theme park, will he finally have a chance to turn his life around, or will it just be another day for Kevin Lee? |
