Meet Joseph Calderaro, eighth-grade optimist. Life is going smoothly for him until his social studies teacher assigns the essay, 'Tracing Your Past: A Heritage Essay.' There's only one little problem- Joseph was adopted from Korea by his Italian parents, and knows very little about his heritage, or his birth mom. Take the journey with Joseph as he comes to terms with being Korean, as well as Italian, or in Joseph's words, 'an ethnic sandwich.'
