From School Library Journal:
Grade 3–5—Levete explains who immigrants are and why people might choose to live in a foreign country. Why some people are against immigration is briefly explained. She suggests ways that readers can help new immigrant classmates. The second title discusses the difference between learning difficulties and learning disabilities. It focuses on dyslexia and explains autism and ADHD. Interestingly, medications are not mentioned. The writing is appropriate for the target audience, and the large type is placed amid plenty of white space. Both books have bright color photos. Blue "My Story" boxes give a peek at how particular kids cope with their issues: "My dad is a doctor....But because he doesn't have the right papers, he can only work packing boxes here." "Sam has ADHD....This means he is always...fidgeting and active." These are acceptable introductions, and they are well organized for report writers.—Anne Chapman Callaghan, Racine Public Library, WI
