Listen, Wonder, Ask

Listen, Wonder, Ask begins with a young girl named Nadine who asks a new friend about her coming-here story, setting off a beautiful chain reaction of curiosity, empathy, and connection as neighbors across her community share their own journeys and traditions. Warm illustrations and gentle text celebrate the many paths that bring families together in one place. This book is an excellent choice for students because it models respectful curiosity about others' backgrounds, celebrates immigrant and multicultural experiences, and encourages classroom conversations about community and belonging.
