America is Immigrants

by Sara Novic Author and Alison Kolesar Illustrator

This is a gorgeously illustrated collection celebrating the incredible range of what it means to be an American, featuring inspiring immigrants from every country.

Award-winning writer Sara Nović’s short biographies, accompanied by charming full-color illustrations by Alison Kolesar, bring American immigrant stories to life. This book honors the crucial contributions of immigrants who have chosen to make America their home, amidst public debates about who belongs here.

It includes war heroes, fashion designers, Supreme Court justices, pop stars, athletes, civil rights leaders, and more: doctors who saved Ronald Reagan’s life, creators of iconic American products, scientists who contributed to the Manhattan Project, and architects behind landmarks like the World Financial Center, Gateway Arch, and Sears Tower.
