The Pippa Park book series by Erin Yun captures the drama of middle school with themes of friendship, family, basketball, peer pressure, and Pippa’s Korean American identity. To celebrate AAPI Heritage Month, teachers and librarians can use the series along with our turnkey activities to discuss AAPI and Korean immigrant experiences through the lens of Pippa Park!

Just like how Erin drew from both her own experiences and Charles Dickens's Great Expectations while writing Pippa Park Raises Her Game, this worksheet walks readers through the same steps she used so they can write their own retelling. Get the printable activity and start writing!

Songs have a way of capturing every emotion and even bringing back memories. Author Erin Yun loves to listen to music—especially K-pop, which makes several appearances throughout Pippa Park Raises Her Game and Pippa Park Crush at First Sight.
