A child’s perspective on immigration enforcement

When immigration officials take Aaliyah’s father from their home, the story turns to the feelings she and her family face afterward. As they prepare for proceedings in Immigration Court, Aaliyah recognizes her own bravery, while the family’s communication becomes part of how they help her understand what is happening. The book brings a child’s experience of family separation into a story about emotions, communication, and navigating legal proceedings. Its description also presents it as a resource for adults supporting children affected by immigration enforcement.
