Krista Kim-Bap is a middle grade fiction book which is about the story of Krista and her Korean family who resides in Canada. Krista was struggling on some of the changes she's experiencing such as the change in her style of clothing, and the change on how her classmates treats here. Because of these changes, her relationship with her best friend Jason was on the rocks. Her sister, grandma and her mom all helped her by trying to let her clear and understand some things, especially on how she must learn to accept what she really is.

Through a school project, she also learnt about her Korean ethnicity: its culture and its history, specifically which are related to food. Krista's relationship with her grandma and her older sister has come into good terms after; family is a family, and must help each other especially on times of need.
