Family Roots Day

Going Home, Coming Home by Truong Tran is written in both English and Vietnamese. Ami Chi and her parents go to Vietnam to visit family. The parents speak of Vietnam as home. At first Ami feels strange in Vietnam, but soon Ami learns to love her family in Vietnam. By the time she leaves, she feels as though she has two homes – one for the left side of her heart and one for the right side. Ann Phong’s beautiful illustrations add to the pleasure of reading a book about the joys of connecting with family.
