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.
