Welcome to Litsy!

4⭐This book is all about what you would pack in your suitcase if you were an immigrant. It‘s about the things one leaves behind and what one brings to say hi New World this is me. This is lovingly done. It‘s not really about immigration; it‘s more about introducing yourself to a new people in new society and what does that well. And while this book is lovely, it rhymes, it has cadence, it does what it does well. I wish the author had gone further.

I found this great book at Dollar Tree. Always stay on the lookout. You never know what you will find. 😊

There is on the one hand a wonderful message here, many Americans are immigrants or the descendants of immigrants. But what is so utterly disappointing is Native Americans are invisible, as in entirely absent in this story. How does this continue to happen? I was compelled to make the correction for my daughter after we finished reading it. Sad.

In This is Me, a teacher is explaining how her family came to the United States. This book is written by Jamie Lee Curtis and Laura Cornell and illustrated by Laura Cornell. She explains to her students that her Grandmother couldn‘t take a lot of items and asks her students what would they take if they had to only back things that can fit into a small suitcase. #LAE3414sp19

I‘m on a business trip and staying in my boss‘s house upstate as it‘s halfway before our destination. It feels like I‘m on a family summer vacation, haha. Too bad we have to have meetings all day tomorrow. But it‘s fun to see her daughter‘s bookshelf in the room I‘m staying in! #shelfie
