Four immigrant authors worked with the Lain America Youth Center to create this bilingual entry in Shout Mouse Press's Beyond Borders series. In Jasmin Pictures Home, four soccer-loving children move to a new town. All from different countries, they wonder how they can embrace and share their cultures with the rest of their school as they struggle to fit in.

From the publisher: “In Jasmín Pictures Home, Andy, Marisol, Pedro and Yunior wanted to write a book that explores what it’s like to be different in a new country. In this book, a group of friends are the only kids in their school who are not from the same town. These four best friends are all immigrants --from four different countries!--and they all speak Spanish. Though they bond over their shared language and their shared love of soccer, it’s not always easy being different from everyone else. The newest arrival, Jasmin, is having the hardest time and she spends all her time drawing. Hector, Manolito, and Jorge don’t like seeing Jasmin struggle. Can they work together to help Jasmin see the beauty in being different?”
