Mindy decides that on the second day she will take a chance and ask Sally if she can eat lunch with her. Sally says yes and curiosity abounds at the lunch table over Mindy's seaweed snacks. Even though Mindy doesn't have any seaweed snacks left for herself after sharing with her new friends, this is much better than the previous day when the people at her table made fun of her lunch. With some encouragement from Sally, Mindy creates a seaweed snack business. Is Mindy's new popularity too good to be true? Read this first book in the Mindy Kim series to find out! Mindy is a relatable and fun character who really wants a puppy. This book is a fun way to learn more about Korean culture.
