# Someone New - Hardcover

by **Anne Sibley O'Brien** (Author), **Anne Sibley O'Brien** (Illustrator)

**"A great book to help students of all ages understand how they can welcome new members into their classrooms and communities." -_School Library Journal_**

In this companion story to _I'm New Here_, three elementary schoolers--who aren't new--begin to understand and embrace three immigrant students.

Are you new here? Do you know someone new? In _I'm New Here_ and _Someone New_, young readers explore the immigrant experience through both "windows" and "mirrors." In _I'm New Here_, readers meet three recent immigrants trying to adjust to a new country and school. In _Someone New_, the same story is told from the perspective of the students who welcome the newcomers. An honest and heartwarming look at diversity, inclusion, and friendship.
