Every first-generation immigrant has a unique story to tell – and is part of a large community that knows just what it’s like, too.

This is a kids’ book about first-generation immigrants. When you're a first-generation immigrant, a lot of things feel different from what you know: a new place to live, a new school, new foods, new smells, new noises.

This book was made to help kids aged 5-9 understand that they’re thankfully not alone in this experience. This author immigrated to a new country with his family when he was a kid. He has been there, understands, and wants you to know that all the experiences that make you who you are…are amazing!

A Kids Book About First Generation Immigrants features:
  • A large and bold, yet minimalist font design that allows kids freedom to imagine themselves in the words on the pages.
  • A friendly, approachable, empowering, and child-appropriate tone throughout.
  • An incredible and diverse group of authors in the series who are experts or have first-hand experience of the topic.

Tackling important discourse together!

The A Kids Book About titles are best used when read together.
