This time, though, they're having trouble coming up with just the right plan. Then Julia's mother offers a suggestion: They can raise silkworms, as she did when she was a girl in Korea.

I’m currently reading the book “Project Mulberry” by Linda Sue Park. Julia and her friend, Patrick are intending to make something absolutely awesome for their partner project... but right now their minds have gone blank. Until the day Julia asked her mom for suggestions, her mom gave the idea of growing silkworms and making some thread. But Julia thought it was FAR to Korean. Still she decides to be loyal and tell Patrick. I like this book because the characters are so interesting, funny, and s...more

Why I really, really like this book:

1.
Julia, a Korean-American seventh-grader, deals with a lot of issues common to Asians growing up in the United States. I immediately identified with some of her insecurities.

2.
Patrick, Julia's best friend, becomes her friend mainly because he's not put off by the smell of kim chee. I love how a simple thing like this can break through some of Julia's hangups and lead to a real friendship. When you're that age, sometimes little things like that do lead to th...more

Some books have strong character development, and Project Mulberry is one of those books. As the silkwork project progresses, Julia goes from hating the worms, to loving them. She also goes from being uncomfortable with her Korean heritage to embracing it. I especially enjoyed the "conversations" between Julia and the author after most chapters. This was a writing technique that I had never seen before.

I found the relationship between Julia and Patrick to be realistic. Sometimes they would fight...more

She's also such a sophisticated writer, I don't think readers always get what she's doing. Take the metafictional narrative that occurs between the author and the protagonist in this story. On the outset, it is a story about a girl and her best friend doing a project about silkworms for a state fair competition. Themes abound regarding friendship, prejudice, conservation, ethnic identity, sibling rivalry, phobias, and more. On the inset, there is a metafictional narrative going on between the author and the protagonist. The literary device called, metafiction, is fiction that self-consciously reflects upon itself. Or in simpler terms it is fiction about fiction. This technique can be found in oodles of books such as It's a Book by Lane Smith, Lulu Walks the Dog by Judith Viorst, The Series of Unfortunate Events by Lemony Snicket, or Don Quixote, to name a few. I thought Park's use of this technique elevated this book and made it more engaging. However, from the reviews I read it seems that some find it annoying or distracting. You decide.

Julia and Patrick are doing a silkworm project for the state fair through a club at school. Julia thinks the project is "too Korean" and that she already stands out at school as the only Korean-American, but Patrick is so excited that she doesn't say anything to him out loud. Actually they don't really brainstorm other possibilities resulting in friendship problems that they have to resolve as the project progresses.

Julia becomes involved with caring for the silkworms to such a point that she doesn't realize what she must do to extract the silk. When she finds out she gets into an enormous fight with Patrick about how silk is farmed and her feelings are further complicated from a field trip that discussed the ethical treatment of domesticated animals used to feed the population. The topics are heavy but Park doesn't overwhelm the storyline with them. The plot is driven by the character and she adds tension and different themes creating a nice pace.

The senses are engaged in the beginning with the description of the Korean spicy food, kimchee, that one character hates and the other adores. The main character is likable and flawed which makes it easy to identify with her. I did find it hard to believe that she would have problems with the worms and making silk, but I'm not the most sensitive person and I could buy it that another might feel that strongly about what they were doing (can you tell I'm trying to not give away the problem and spoil the fun of discovering it as you read the book). I did like that Patrick emails her the same questions that I wondered about and I could relate more to his feelings than Julia's.

The plot doesn't have loose ends and I found myself admiring how well Park crafts the story. I had questions about the mom's attitude and I liked the unique answer at the end which is appropriate to the fact that the book is in the first person point of view so the reader isn't going to know about the mom's prejudices. I thought it was very real because Julia was so sensitive and it was hard for her to even discuss her feelings about the project with her best friend, much less confront her mother on a complex and serious topic. In the end, the state fair results are given and it was refreshing and realistic what happens to the pair, vesus a perfect-type ending where all the characters' dreams come true.

Julia has a question and answer conversation with the author that is funny and gives the reader a glimpse into what it is like to craft a story. I really enjoyed this technique and thought it elevated the book even more as it tried to do something different than the normal kids-doing-a-school-project story. Like I said earlier, some might find it distracting to the story. I thought it was done sparingly enough to not be a nuisance. I also thought it answered many of the questions I had as I was reading.

If you like Park's novels then I would suggest trying books by the author Kate Messner; both have plots that emphasize science and math, have multiple themes, and strong female characters.

Julia is in seventh grade, and through the series of events that take place, she is forced to confront her ethnicity and come to terms with who she is. Julia gets help along the way from her mother, her best friend Patrick, and her annoying brother Kenny. Julia and Patrick want to enter a project in the state fair, through their schools Wiggle Club. Julia wants to do something very, “red-white-and blue” American, but her mother suggests she grow silkworms instead like her grandmother did back in Korea. Due to Patrick’s enthusiasm, Julia reluctantly agrees to do the project; however, she secretly hopes things go wrong. Eventually, Julia and Patrick end up purchasing twenty-five silkworms and the story unfolds. This book provides great insight, as it is authored by Korean-American writer, Linda Sue Park. The main characters feelings are conveyed without stereotypical representations. We are able to understand the turmoil Julia feels by being at odds with her heritage. Also, the story reveals how prejudices are expressed in everyday life. For example, there is the time Julia’s friends came over to play and preferred to stay outdoors because her house smelled like the Korean food kimchee. Then, there is an instance when Julia’s mom is indifferent about her going to Mr. Dixon’s house for the mulberry tree leaves the silkworms need, and Julia wonders if it is due to the fact he is of color. A distinct aspect of the book is the dialogue that takes place at the end of every chapter between the main character Julia, and the author, Ms. Park. These conversations provide the reader a clearer understanding of the author’s writing process. For example, why the character was named Julia, why Kenny is so annoying, and why Ms. Park was unsure about the story’s ending. Reading Project Mulberry, allows readers to gain a better understanding of the Korean culture, relate to what it is like to be different, and have an appreciation for wanting to be accepted for who you are.

They do homework together, study for test, and our both in the Wiggle Club. The club is starting to work on projects that they can enter in to the state fair. When Julia’s mom suggests a project on silk worms Julia thinks it is too Korean, but Patrick loves the idea. Julia is against the silk worm idea because her family is the only Korean family in the town and has previous experiences with prejudice and discrimination. Julia cannot talk Patrick out of the idea and agrees to do it with him. She then spends the rest of book trying to find a way to sabotage the project without Patrick knowing. Throughout the book Julia learns to accept her heritage and realizes that she is still American even with a different cultural background. An interesting aspect of the book is that after each chapter the author has a conversation with the Julia, the main character. These insights were added to show details about the story such as how the author came up with the characters and how some situations were based off of her own life.
Julia’s parents are from Korea and show many characteristics of a traditional Korean lifestyle. Julia was born in the United States and has a different view on what it means to be Korean. Readers will also learn how Patrick, whose family has been in America for decades, feels about his and Julia’s cultures. Even though Julia’s culture is Korean it is different than that of her parents. This story does a good job of celebrating the diversity in cultures. The reader sees to levels of Korean culture and how and outsider interacts with the values and customs of that culture. As the book focuses on Julia and her family, the reader will gain a lot of knowledge about the Korean culture. They will see what values are important, food is eaten, and what traditions are participated in. One example of this is how Julia does not want to be seen as too Korean, but is learning how to do embroidery the traditional Korean way. Another example of the cultural detail that is shown is that Julia does not want to have friends over to her house because it smells like kimchee and they used to call her names. (less)

This book is about a girl named Julia Song. Julia is Korean and her best friend is Patrick. Patrick and her have always been friends and done school work together. When needing their next project idea, they listen to Julia's mom about raising silkworms. Julia is hesitant at first but in the end, ends up really liking them.
Julia battles her emotions throughout the book. She does not know how to react to her mother not wanting her to go to a complete stranger's house to pick leaves off his mulberry tree. She is also very confused toward the end of the book when she realized that she would have to the silkworms that she raised from eggs in order to collect their silk. She ended up getting second place for her project when she used the silkworms' silk to embroider her project.

Response
I gave this book an overall rating of two stars. I did not feel that it deserved anymore because I felt it was slow moving. It was not very interesting and did not hold my attention at times. However, this may be because the book is not for my reading level.
This book made me feel somewhat annoyed at times. I felt that Julia complained about too many things. For instance, after every chapter, Julia complained to the author about what the author wrote about her. She also became upset at her friend for little things. Julia did not seem to be very proud of her heritage. She seemed to sort of despise it like when her mom said how her grandmother had raised silkworms.

Classroom Connections
I believe that this book can be used to show that no matter what, you should be proud of your heritage. Julia tried to avoid the project that involved doing things that her relatives had done. However, in the end, she pulled through. She learned to be proud of the project and not just because she won second place, but because it was an amazing process that her friend and her went through. It was like the circle of life.

CCSS Range
According to lexile.com, this book has an overall 690L. This book would be best fit to read to fourth or fifth graders during in class read-a-louds. Project Mulberry would be perfect for fifth and sixth graders to read independently. It might even inspire them for their next science fair project!(less)
