Our Current Book Selection
This month, we're diving into Finally Seen, a heartfelt and powerful middle-grade novel by Kelly Yang. The story follows Lina, a young girl who reunites with her family in the United States after five years apart, only to discover that life in a new country comes with unexpected challenges.
Through Lina’s journey of finding her voice and place, Finally Seen explores themes of immigration, identity, courage, and the power of storytelling. It's a moving, timely read that’s perfect for sparking thoughtful discussion.
