"An anthology exploring the joys, heartbreaks and triumphs of immigration-- written by YA authors who are themselves immigrants and the children of immigrants. Their characters face random traffic stops, TSA detention, customs anxiety, and the daunting and inspiring journey to new lands... while also dancing at weddings, keeping diaries, teaching ESL. In presenting the myriad facets of the immigrant experience, the characters decide their own answer to the question "where are you from?"" -- adapted from jacket.
