Naomi Hirahara to discuss her book “A Child’s Introduction to Asian American and Pacific Islander History” on Saturday, May 18, at 1 p.m. at Vroman’s Bookstore, 695 E. Colorado Blvd., Pasadena.
The perfect primer for kids ages 8-12, the book is packed with remarkable stories, groundbreaking events, and inspirational people that have made a lasting impact on the history and culture of the U.S.
The latest entry in the award-winning Child’s Introduction series is an inspirational and essential look at the impact and influence that AAPI peoples have made to America. It features profiles of dozens of AAPI trailblazers from all walks of life, including political activist Grace Lee Boggs, Vice President Kamala Harris, actor Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, and dozens of others who have made contributions to music, food, sciences, technology, and more.
Kids will learn key terms like “Asian American” and “Pacific Islander,” how to pronounce common Asian names, and the discrimination members of the community have faced (and continue to face). They will be introduced to a wide variety of traditions, from Diwali to Lunar New Year, and signature dishes like poi and pho, all giving greater visibility to Asian Americans for young learners.
Featuring charming illustrations by Sarah Demonteverde and a lively design, as well as a pull-out poster, “A Child’s Introduction to Asian American and Pacific Islander History” is a much-needed addition every home library and classroom.
