  <description><![CDATA[In Dorchester, New York, Kevin is doing his homework when suddenly an arrow comes out of nowhere and pins his baseball cap to the wall.  The man who shot the arrow claims he fell off a tiger . . . and wound up in Kevin's room.  It's not long before Kevin realizes that the man, who calls himself Chu-mong, or Great Archer, is no ordinary burglar, but a traveler from far away in both space and time. A visit to the local museum confirms that there was a king named Chu-mong in ancient Korea who was legendary for many accomplishments, including exceptional skill with bow and arrow.  Kevin knows little about his own Korean heritage, but he understands that unless Archer returns to his people and his throne, history will be changed forever.  And he's determined to help Archer go back, no matter what it takes. Award-winning novelist Linda Sue Park has created a funny and suspenseful adventure, incorporating intriguing bits of Korean history and lore, that will captivate even reluctant readers and will add to her audience of devoted fans.

    <![CDATA[Kevin heard a man&#8217;s voice from somewhere on the other side of his room.<br/>&#8220;Show me your hands, Strange One.&#8221;<br/>A grim voice.<br/>&#8220;Stand&#8211;slowly&#8211;and show me your hands.&#8221;<br/><br/>Kevin is trying to remember what he&#8217;s supposed to do if there&#8217;s an intruder in the house: stay calm, don&#8217;t look scared, call 911. At the same time, he&#8217;s doing his best to figure out how the heck some guy with a bow and arrows got into the room. The archer&#8217;s explanation&#8211;&#8220;I lost my balance, fell off the tiger, and landed here&#8221;&#8211;just adds to Kevin&#8217;s bewilderment.<br/>The stranger&#8217;s astonishing arrival is only the beginning of a dazzling adventure. For the man, whom Kevin calls Archer or Archie, has come from a centuries-old Korean kingdom. And it&#8217;s up to Kevin to find a way to send him back through space and time . . . before history is changed forever.]]>

    <![CDATA[In Dorchester, New York, Kevin is doing his homework when suddenly an arrow comes out of nowhere and pins his baseball cap to the wall.  The man who shot the arrow claims he fell off a tiger . . . and wound up in Kevin's room.  It's not long before Kevin realizes that the man, who calls himself Chu-mong, or Great Archer, is no ordinary burglar, but a traveler from far away in both space and time. A visit to the local museum confirms that there was a king named Chu-mong in ancient Korea who was legendary for many accomplishments, including exceptional skill with bow and arrow.  Kevin knows little about his own Korean heritage, but he understands that unless Archer returns to his people and his throne, history will be changed forever.  And he's determined to help Archer go back, no matter what it takes. Award-winning novelist Linda Sue Park has created a funny and suspenseful adventure, incorporating intriguing bits of Korean history and lore, that will captivate even reluctant readers and will add to her audience of devoted fans.  Author's note.]]>

It's a time-travel book of Chu-mong from Korea 55 B.C. to Kevin in 2003 (or so) and them figuring out how to get him back where he belongs.

At the same time, he&#8217;s doing his best to figure out how the heck some guy with a bow and arrows got into the room. The archer&#8217;s explanation&#8211;&#8220;I lost my balance, fell off the tiger, and landed here&#8221;&#8211;just adds to Kevin&#8217;s bewilderment.<br/>The stranger&#8217;s astonishing arrival is only the beginning of a dazzling adventure. For the man, whom Kevin calls Archer or Archie, has come from a centuries-old Korean kingdom. And it&#8217;s up to Kevin to find a way to send him back through space and time . . . before history is changed forever.]]>

    <![CDATA[In Dorchester, New York, Kevin is doing his homework when suddenly an arrow comes out of nowhere and pins his baseball cap to the wall.  The man who shot the arrow claims he fell off a tiger . . . and wound up in Kevin's room.  It's not long before Kevin realizes that the man, who calls himself Chu-mong, or Great Archer, is no ordinary burglar, but a traveler from far away in both space and time. A visit to the local museum confirms that there was a king named Chu-mong in ancient Korea who was legendary for many accomplishments, including exceptional skill with bow and arrow.  Kevin knows little about his own Korean heritage, but he understands that unless Archer returns to his people and his throne, history will be changed forever.  And he's determined to help Archer go back, no matter what it takes. Award-winning novelist Linda Sue Park has created a funny and suspenseful adventure, incorporating intriguing bits of Korean history and lore, that will captivate even reluctant readers and will add to her audience of devoted fans.

    <![CDATA[TWELVE-YEAR-OLD KEVIN, A Korean American math whiz, is shocked beyond belief when a young man, complete with bow and arrows, crash lands in his bedroom. And that&#8217;s just the beginning. The man, called Skillful Archer, claims to be a legendary ruler from ancient Korea. While Kevin tries explaining contemporary life to the man he nicknames Archie, the young ruler teaches Kevin about focusing his thoughts in an attempt to help him return to his kingdom. There&#8217;s not a moment to lose as Kevin uses Korean history and folktales, math, and the Chinese Zodiac to help his friend travel back through time before the Year of the Tiger ends. If Archie can&#8217;t get home, history will be forever changed.]]>

    <![CDATA[In Dorchester, New York, Kevin is doing his homework when suddenly an arrow comes out of nowhere and pins his baseball cap to the wall.  The man who shot the arrow claims he fell off a tiger . . . and wound up in Kevin's room.  It's not long before Kevin realizes that the man, who calls himself Chu-mong, or Great Archer, is no ordinary burglar, but a traveler from far away in both space and time. A visit to the local museum confirms that there was a king named Chu-mong in ancient Korea who was legendary for many accomplishments, including exceptional skill with bow and arrow.  Kevin knows little about his own Korean heritage, but he understands that unless Archer returns to his people and his throne, history will be changed forever.  And he's determined to help Archer go back, no matter what it takes. Award-winning novelist Linda Sue Park has created a funny and suspenseful adventure, incorporating intriguing bits of Korean history and lore, that will captivate even reluctant readers and will add to her audience of devoted fans.  Author's note.]]>

    <body><![CDATA[Iowa Children's Choice Award Nominee.  It was fine.  I bit too simplistic (I know it is YF) and too much like &quot;Indian in the Cupboard.&quot;  Very predictable, but I bet there are some little boys out there would love this book.  It just wasn't for me.]]></body>
