Their Great Gift: Courage, Sacrifice, and Hope in a New Land

(3) K-3 Photographs by Wing Young Huie. A short poetic text focuses on both the difficulties and rewards of immigrant life. Poignant black-and-white and color photos, taken over thirty years in Huie's home state of Minnesota and around America, feature ordinary people of many ages and ethnicities (there are no individual captions). Though accessible to younger children, the book may best be discussed by middle-elementary students and above.
