Here are two multicultural picture books about immigration thathave been suggested for elementary school children:
Here I Am
by Patti Kim
Newly arrived in America from an Asian country, a young boy
is overwhelmed by the lights and noise of a busy city. He finds
comfort in a red seed he brought from his faraway home country.
When he loses the seed, the search for it eventually leads him to
new friendship. Without words and in expressive cartoon
style, Here I am describes the confusion and sadness of an
uprooted child.
Dear Baobab
by Cheryl Foggo
Moving from Tanzania to Canada with his aunt and uncle, little
Maiko feels homesick. He remembers the big baobab tree in his
home village, and feels a connection to a small spruce tree in his
new home. Seven years old just like Maiko, the tree sings to him
and shares his secrets. When there is talk of cutting down the tree
because it is too close to the house, Maiko tries to save it. After all
he knows what it feels like to be planted in the wrong place. Dear
Baobab is one of my favourite multicultural picture books about
immigration, because of its easy-to-relate-to allegory of an
uprooted tree.
