I'm Ok
Kim, Patti
Genre:
Ok Lee knows it's his responsibility to help pay the bills. With his father gone and his mother working three jobs and still barely making ends meet
there's really no other choice. If only he could win the cash prize at the school talent contest! But he can't sing or dance
and has no magic up his sleeves
so he tries the next best thing: a hair braiding business. It's too bad the girls at school can't pay him much
and he's being befriended against his will by Mickey McDonald
the unusual girl with a larger-than-life personality. Who needs friends? They'd only distract from his mission
and Ok believes life is better on his own. Then there's Asa Banks
the most popular boy in their grade
who's got it out for Ok. But when the pushy deacon at their Korean church starts wooing Ok's mom
it's the last straw. Ok has to come up with an exit strategy--fast.--
