Join Primary
Source and readers from around the world on December 1st
to expand your understanding of the
interconnected world we share. Then, read a free
children's book online and help provide books to young
people in need. There are two parts to this special
opportunity.
Part 1:
Read Girl in Translation with Primary
Source Join Primary Source for an online
book discussion of Girl in Translation by Jean
Kwok.
Girl in Translation is the story
of Kimberly Chang, a young girl who emigrates with her
mother from Hong Kong to Brooklyn. As Kimberly navigates
life from a Chinatown sweatshop to the Ivy League, the
book explores themes of identity, race, family,
adolescence, and immigration.

Part 2:
Read a book. Give a book. In addition to
joining a diverse group of readers for a discussion with
author Jean Kwok, you will also have the opportunity to
join with others in providing books to children in need.

successful, raising over 500 books in one week. We
encourage you to participate in other We Give Books
campaigns to continue to help kids in need.
