His classmates think that because he's from Asia, he must have brought over the virus. At home, Mom just got fired and is panicking over the loss of health insurance, and Dad doesn't even know when he'll see them again, since the flights have been cancelled. And everyone struggles with Knox's blurting-things-out problem. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAs racism skyrockets during COVID-19, Knox tries to stand up to hate, while finding his place in his new country.

Sometimes when the world is spinning out of control, the best way to get through it is to embrace our own lovable uniqueness.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eKelly Yang is the \u003ci\u003eNew York Times \u003c\/i\u003ebestselling author of \u003ci\u003eFront Desk\u003c\/i\u003e (winner of the 2019 Asian Pacific American Award for Children's Literature), \u003ci\u003eParachutes\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThree Keys\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003e Room to Dream\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eNew From Here\u003c\/i\u003e, and\u003ci\u003e Finally Seen\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003ci\u003eFront Desk \u003c\/i\u003ealso won the Parents' Choice Gold Medal, was the 2019 Global Read Aloud, and has earned numerous other honors including being named a best book of the year by Amazon, \u003ci\u003eThe Washington Post\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e, and NPR.
