I'm from Here Too - Kashmira Sheth

Descriere I'm from Here Too - Kashmira Sheth

Kashmira Sheth's eloquent verse novel follows an Indian American Sikh boy through a year of change, challenges, and growth \nAnoop is many things: a brother, a son, a grandson, a friend, a middle school student, and a budding writer. He is also Indian American and Sikh. \n \nWhen he joins a new class, separated from longtime friends, aspects of his identity--especially his long hair, covered with a patka--draw attention in new and uncomfortable ways. At the same time, his beloved grandfather in India is nearing death, leading Anoop to think about faith and identity and his place in the world, especially as attacks on American Sikhs accelerate and he is reminded of his grandfather's experiences during Partition. \n \nCan the tenets of his faith--equality, justice, service, honesty--help Anoop navigate life? Can he even maintain them?\n
