  An untold American frontier story … 
  North Dakota, 1905  
  After fleeing persecution in the Russian Empire, eleven-year-old Shoshana and her  
  family, Jewish immigrants, start a new life on the prairie. Shoshana takes fierce joy  
  in the wild beauty of the plains and the thrill of forging a new, American identity.  
  But it’s not as simple for her older sister, Libke, who misses their Ukrainian village  
  and doesn’t learn English as quickly or make friends as easily.  
  Desperate to fit in, Shoshana finds herself hiding her Jewish identity in the face of  
  prejudice, just as Libke insists they preserve it. For the first time, Shoshana is at  
  odds with her beloved sister, and has to look deep inside herself to realize that  
  her family’s difference is their greatest strength. By listening to the music that’s  
  lived in her heart all along, Shoshana finds new meaning in the Jewish expression  
  all beginnings are difficult, as well as in the resilience and traditions her people  
  have brought all the way to the North Dakota prairie.

  Named one of New York Public Library's & Bank Street's Best Books of the Year! 
  The Farewell meets Erin Entrada Kelly's Blackbird Fly in this empowering middle grade memoir from debut author Waka T. Brown, who takes readers on a journey to 1980s Japan, where she was sent as a child to reconnect to her family’s roots. 
  When twelve-year-old Waka’s parents suspect she can’t understand the basic Japanese they speak to her, they make a drastic decision to send her to Tokyo to live for several months with her strict grandmother. Forced to say goodbye to her friends and what would have been her summer vacation, Waka is plucked from her straight-A-student life in rural Kansas and flown across the globe, where she faces the culture shock of a lifetime. 
  In Japan, Waka struggles with reading and writing in kanji, doesn’t quite mesh with her complicated and distant Obaasama, and gets made fun of by the students in her Japanese public-school classes. Even though this is the country her parents came from, Waka has never felt more like an outsider. 
  If she’s always been the “smart Japanese girl” in America but is now the “dumb foreigner” in Japan, where is home...and who will Waka be when she finds it?

  A moving book about the history of Emancipation Park in Houston, Texas—and the origins of Juneteenth. 
  When people visit me, they are free—to run, play, gather, and rejoice. 
  They built me to remember. 
  On June 19, 1865, the 250,000 enslaved people of Texas learned they were free, ending slavery in the United States. This day was soon to be memorialized with the dedication of a park in Houston. The park was called Emancipation Park, and the day it honored would come to be known as Juneteenth.   
  In the voice and memory of the park itself—its fields and pools, its protests and cookouts, and, most of all, its people—the 150-year story of Emancipation Park is brought to life. Through lyrical text Tonya Duncan Ellis and Jenin Mohammed have crafted an ode to the struggle, triumph, courage, and joy of Black America—and the promise of a people to remember.
