Made in Korea

A story about cultural acceptance, family connections, and personal identity, “Made in Korea” broaches issues and themes relevant to youth today. While selling products for their school-based businesses, two Korean students learn from their mistakes and offer readers opportunities to relate and examine the ethics around business and competition. Suitable for secondary-level students, the book may be used in the classroom to emphasize themes of personal and cultural identity or personal growth and empathy. Its story about the characters running their small businesses may lend itself well to lessons around careers and business.
