Synopses & Reviews
Synopsis
A perfect resource for both teens and their families; those who are recent arrivals to the United States, or immigrants who have been here for some time. If you want to provide access to a sensitively written account of what it means to be a new American, this is the title to purchase. Discussion includes second language concerns, a history of immigration to the U.S., suggested resolutions for conflicts between clashing cultural values and customs, and an upbeat and up-to-date look at what there is to celebrate in this new land.
