Reach for this book when your child expresses curiosity or insecurity about their heritage, or if they struggle to see how school subjects like math apply to real-world problems. Twelve-year-old Kevin Kim feels disconnected from his Korean roots until Chu-mong, a legendary archer-king from 55 BCE, suddenly appears in his bedroom. To help the king return home, Kevin must bridge the gap between ancient traditions and modern logic. It is a brilliant pick for middle-grade readers who enjoy historical puzzles and stories about finding pride in one's identity. This fast-paced adventure celebrates the intersection of cultural history and personal talent. Through Kevin's journey, children see that honoring the past doesn't mean ignoring the present, but rather using every tool at their disposal to help others. It is appropriate for ages 8 to 12 and serves as a wonderful conversation starter about family history.
