Davy Brown Discovers His Roots

Written by Keely Alexander & Velani Mynhardt Witthoft
Illustrated by Manuela Pentangelo

Davy Brown is a bright, all-American boy with some not-so-typical problems. His best friend may be leaving the country. His teacher has just instructed the class to describe their own immigration stories—but his family doesn’t have one! And if he fails the class, he may lose his spot on the baseball team. And if all that weren’t bad enough, the cafeteria is serving coleslaw again…

Join Davy and his friends Carlos, Erika, and Amit on their quest as they discover that even the most seemingly typical people have exciting immigration histories. Then, using the resources in this book, embark on your own voyage of discovery—what fascinating immigration stories will you unearth? How many flags adorn your family tree? The answers may surprise and delight you!
