 This month I'm really enjoying the young adult novel called In the Beautiful Country by Jane Kuo. It's an engaging story about Anna who immigrates from Taiwan to the United States. It is written with a prose structure in brief, but riveting chapters.
A great read for your learners, as part of a mirrors, windows, and sliding glass doors ethos. This book would make an excellent pairing or concept driven book clubs with other immigrant narratives like Gene Luen Yang's American Born Chinese and one of my favorites Thanhhà Lai's Inside Out and Back Again.
