The Immigrant Experiences Reading & Resource Guide was created by Kelly Hooker, an avid book reviewer @kellyhook.readsbooks, alongside Rawand Amedi, mental health therapist and refugee from Kurdistan. Hear how they created this guide to foster understanding, build empathy, and open meaningful conversations across ages. Kelly and Rawand carefully selected stories for both children and adults that invite readers to see the world through lived experiences of migration, identity, belonging, and resilience. They remind us that stories have the power to connect us, even across different backgrounds.  Kelly and Rawand wanted to share some resources:  what-to-say-to-kids-about-ice and the Immigrant Experiences Reading Guide.
