A new school, a new language, a new beginning
Mei Yu’s move from China to Canada brings several kinds of newness at once: a different country, an unfamiliar school, and the challenge of learning English. Told as an early-reader graphic novel and based on Yu’s own immigration experience, the story connects the everyday experience of being the new kid with the added work of finding one’s way in another language. Alongside that adjustment, Mei discovers a way to learn English and forms a friendship, giving the book’s school setting a clear focus on connection as well as change.
Based on publisher information and book metadata.
"This bright and bubbly early reader graphic novel, based on debut creator Yu's own immigration story, validates the sometimes overwhelming nature of learning an unfamiliar language as a child in a new country." --Publishers Weekly
