Sang-Eun Lee Bukaty’s Grace Notes is engaging and memorable., by Mary Connor, President of the Korea Academy for Educators

“Sang-Eun Lee Bukaty’s Grace Notes is engaging and memorable. The author shares childhood memories of growing up during the Korean War, her experiences as a young and talented cellist, and the decision to come to the United States on her own when she was twenty years old. As she shares her difficulties of adapting to life in the United States, we deepen our understanding of the challenges faced by the first wave of Korean immigrants during the 1960s and early 1970s. Her account is a valuable gift for the second generation of Korean Americans who may have grown up without appreciating their rich heritage, the courage and sacrifices of their parents, and their belief in the importance of education, devotion to family, and faith helped to achieve the American dream.”
