A story inspired by Diep Nguyen

This collaboration between Diep Nguyen and Nury Castillo Crawford is one that supports the culturally responsive pedagogy philosophy that all children should be reflected in the books that are made available to them. A story based on the true story of the Boat People. An era in history where Vietnamese people had to flee their own country to survive. A great addition to any classroom to support a culturally responsive learning environment. The book will be available in a bilingual format, Vietnamese and English.
