In many ways this story is like most standard early chapter books: simple language,and simple plot, with short sentences, chapters, and overall length. But what stands out is that the focus is on the relationship between a girl, Jina, and her grandmother (Halmoni). Jina’s biggest concern is that her grandmother misses her best friend, who moved away. Jina sets a sweet example of considering others better than herself as she sets out to help Halmoni find new friends and activities. In addition, the story promotes literacy, cross-cultural friendships, and respect for elders.
