This week, Tracy and Jim talk with Dr. Don Vu, who has released his book LIFE, LITERACY, AND THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS.  A refugee himself, Dr. Vu has learned firsthand and through his scholarship what it takes to support refugee and immigrant youth in their literacy development.  He reflects on the little things that will make a difference now as well as the practices we currently employ in the name of literacy teaching and learning that may get in the way.  

LITTLE THINGS FIRST will premiere new episodes every two weeks beginning today.  The next new episode will air June 22.
