| What are Amy and Adam going to do about their love life? Neither Amy's traditionalist Japanese parents nor Adam's snobby, upper-class mother will accept their relationship. To make things worse, Amy and Adam are involved in the "color game" at school, an experiment that's designed to make students aware of class and racial prejudices. Now the experiment threatens to alienate Amy from her friends and tear her apart from Adam. She knows it's time to rebel against the color game. But will the rest of the class follow her lead?
Annotation:
Seventeen-year-old Emiko, known as Amy by all her American friends, feels trapped. She loves Adam, an American boy from a wealthy family, but neither her traditionalist Japanese parents nor Adam's snobby mother approve of their relationship. When Mr. Otero involves his whole class in the 'color game', an exercise to acquaint his students with class and color prejudice, Amy and Adam find themselves on opposite ends of the spectrum--and Amy realizes that she must fight for what she wants.
