The Exchange Student

di Keith Burnett (Autore)

Palmetto Publishing, 2024

When a Korean exchange student falls for a Californian boy, she'll have to make a heart-wrenching decision between obeying her father's wishes or living her dreams without her father's approval. At the behest of her father in Seoul, with whom she has a very close relationship, Moon Eun-ji agrees to go on a year-long student exchange to a high school in California. There, she has a life-changing experience. She meets an American boy named Steve, and the two become good friends. Soon, their friendship leads to romance-which Eun-ji keeps secret from her father back in Korea because she knows he would not approve. Ultimately, Eun-ji decides that Steve is the one she wants to spend the rest of her life with. And though she does not want to disappoint her father, this leads to a major conflict with him. Not your typical coming of age story, The Exchange Student reveals how love can conquer not only barriers but also borders . . . and sometimes, breaks your heart. The Exchange Student is a heartfelt contemporary young adult novel that illustrates the positive life-changing experiences these programs can bring to teenagers' lives-as well as to introduce American young people to Korean culture and vice versa.
