Almost American Girl: An Illustrated Memoir

Raised as the only child of a single mother in Seoul, Robin's life is upended when her mother suddenly moves the family to Huntsville, Alabama after remarrying. Struggling with a new culture, language, and feeling like an outsider, she turns to drawing and storytelling, eventually discovering how art can offer a lifeline and a sense of belonging. The graphic memoir, rendered in expressive panels, weaves humor, heartbreak, and resilience into a candid exploration of immigration, identity, and the healing power of creativity.
