HAVPALADSET fortæller historien om Noor, som flygter til Danmark med sin far og bror og må efterlade moren i Syrien. Undervejs mister de hendes lillesøster til havet. Om dagen går hun i skole og leger med sin nye veninde, men om natten får hun superkræfter og flyver af sted på farlige missioner til Syrien i håb om at redde moren fra krigen. Hendes største bedrift bliver at bygge et stort palads på havets bund, hvor de druknede kan vente, indtil de ikke længere skal være i havet. Med HAVPALADSET har Anne Lise Marstrand-Jørgensen skrevet en smuk og rørende, men også humoristisk og varm bog, som vil give både børn og voksne stof til eftertanke og til nogle gode samtaler om et svært emne, der er blevet en stor del af vores hverdag og vores nyhedsstrøm.

Moheb begiver sig af sted i en søgen efter sin far, der er et sted i Europa, og sin mor, der måske findes et sted i de folkeeventyr, hun har fortalt ham, mens hun levede.

KOLLEKTIVET SORTHANDSK UDGIVER LYRIKSAMLING TILLAGT GRAFISK SIDE AF HENRIK SIEGEL OG FORORD AF METTE JENSEN HAYLES. Det Aarhusbaserede kollektiv bestående af Marwan, Michel Svane og Søren Bendz er kendt i musikkens verden, men retter med SOM FOROVEN SOM FORNEDEN nu for alvor fokus mod det skrevne ord.SORTHANDSK tilbyder noget unikt til dansk lyrik i en tid, hvor kampen om sandheden er rå og polariseret, og det selvoplevede traume står i centrum. SORTHANDSKS tekster er politiske, men samtidig båret af en autentisk historiefortælling, hvor ordene skaber afløb for både frustration og vrede, og derudover giver indsigt i minoriteters livsomstændigheder. Dermed kommer lyrikken til at spille en opbyggelig rolle både hos afsender og modtager og virker som solide trædesten ind i et nyt fællesskab. Marwan og resten af SORTHANDSK har aktivt valgt at kanalisere alle følelserne ned i værker, der kan skabe debat og vise generationerne efter dem, at der er andre muligheder end at brænde systemet ned. Det er både selvterapeutisk og helende at beskrive krigens rædsler i Gaza, men også en afgørende håndsrækning til flere marginaliserede grupper, der håber på en etablering af dialog imellem mennesker.Netop ønsket om dialog står helt tydeligt frem, når først bølgerne af frustration og vrede har lagt sig, og håbet stadig runger ordene. Trods et hårdt liv på den yderste kant af samfundet og i evig kamp mod normer og fordomme, trods en krop og et sind, der må være træt – og træt af det hele til tider – så formår Marwan og resten af SORTHANDSK at indgyde tro blandt de mennesker, der krydser deres vej og bliver ramt af de verbale knytnæveslag, de altid sender først afsted, men som forvandler sig til en varm hånd at holde i, efterhånden som budskaberne står tydeligt frem.Sjældent har autenticitet været så smukt i sit udtryk. Det er gadens og undergangens sprog, men det er også menneskets. Mennesket med alle dets fejl og mangler, men med den anmassende trang til at gøre det bedre end sidst. Lyrikken er ubarmhjertig og hjertevarm på samme tid. Den efterlader ingen uberørt af den ubønhørlige energi og vilje til forandring, der ligger bag.Man kan slå sig hårdt på SORTHANDSK, men man kan også blive løftet op til nye erkendelser og ind i et varmt fællesskab, hvor netop de svære følelsesmæssige udfordringer bliver omfavnet. Her bliver der ikke hyklet, og hvor andre bider sig i tungen og holder kæft, så spytter SORTHANDSK blodet ud igen og fortsætter ufortrødent med at konfrontere os med de ubekvemme sandheder, om hvor galt det står til mange steder i Danmark og det systemiske svigt, som mange mennesker udsættes for og fastholdes i.

A debut author and an award-winning illustrator unite to craft an entirely bilingual ode to the amor, courage, and memories we carry from one generation to the next, from one country to another. We worked and workedjuntos para realizar el sueño Nuestra familia . . . nos superamos as individuals andtogether Mamá tells her children a story that began when their papá was a niño, not far from here. Their abuelitas told stories of their antepasados, and their abuelo, a blacksmith, taught their papá how to make art from earth and fire. When abuelo died, papá took all those lessons to heart and crossed la frontera to el norte to follow his sueños. There, he worked and overcame barriers, known to many immigrants alike, to forge his own obra maestra: a familia and a future in which anything is possible. Debut author Nydia Armendia-Sánchez relays a story of immigration, creativity, and comunidad through a translanguage text that moves naturally from English to español and back in a manner that will be familiar to many second and third generations of Latine families--and evocative to immigrant families of any heritage. Brilliantly brought to life by Devon Holzwarth's rich, imaginative illustrations, this warm abrazo of a book features a glossary of Spanish words.

Half a Century Ago offers a vivid recollection of memories about coming of age in the Bronx, New York, in the 1970s. This engaging story is an empowering read about how family love provided the foundation to overcome the challenges faced by language and cultural barriers, poverty and social inequities while remaining steadfast focused on positive outcomes. Dr. Arias told these stories to her students over the years in the classroom. She now wishes to share those tales to a larger audience of young immigrants who struggle to overcome adversity and hope for a brighter future.

From APALA-winning author and Guggenheim Fellow Kao Kalia Yang, a middle-grade debut about a Hmong American boy's struggle to find a place for himself in America and in the world of his ancestors.Malcolm is the youngest child of Hmong refugees, and he was born over a decade after his youngest sibling, giving him a unique perspective on his complicated immigrant family.In the first part of the story, we meet Malcolm as an elementary school kid through the eyes of the adults in his life—his parents and siblings, but also the white teachers at his Minnesota schools. As middle school begins, we encounter Malcolm in his own words, and suddenly we see that this "quiet, slow Hmong boy" is anything but. Malcolm is a gifted collector of his family's stories and tireless seeker of his own place within an evolving Hmong American culture, and his journey toward becoming a shaman like his grandparents before him is inspiring and revelatory.

An uplifting immigration story about tackling new experiences with curiosityA little girl and her family are emigrating to a new country. As they say goodbye to their home and move to an unfamiliar place, the girl is full of questions: Will they ever return? What if she doesn't make new friends? Why does she look different than the other kids? Her mother's supportive refrain encourages her to voice her curiosity: It's okay, just ask! Sometimes the answers lead to exciting discoveries. Other times, the answers are unclear, or prompt even more questions. But each time the girl chooses to just ask, she learns more about her community and herself. Partially based on the author's own experience moving her family from the Philippines to Canada, this is a thoughtful, child-centered look at being a newcomer. While exploring the specific experience of immigrants, it also shares a more universal message about speaking up when uncertain or confused. It welcomes readers to ask questions when they're unsure, and approach different people and places with an open mind.

"An important work that is immensely personal, powerful, and heart-wrenching." --Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "They were there at the beginning of the War, but they were gone by the end. I suppose they died in the camps." That's all young Michael Rosen, born in England just after the Second World War, was told about his family members who had been living in Poland or France when the war began. This wasn't enough. So, as an adult, he searched for them. In a unique mix of memoir, history, and poetry, scholar and children's literature luminary Michael Rosen explores his family history, digging up more details than he ever thought he would and sharing them so that now, a lifetime after the Nazis tried to make the world forget the Rosen family and the rest of Europe's Jews, his readers can do something essential: remember. With an extensive list of titles for further reading, maps of France and Poland, a family tree, and an introduction by lauded author and anthologist Marc Aronson, this immensely readable narrative offers a vital tool for talking to children about the Holocaust against the background of the ongoing refugee crisis.
