Reviews

The 'settled' - the teachers, administrators, and others who shape schools and school systems - will better welcome the globally mobile if they understand how those mobile children and parents make sense of their movement. Weaving together 77 migrants' accounts here, Catalano masterfully shares key ideas to support this 'better welcome.' Edmund 'Ted' Hamann, The University of Nebraska-Lincoln, USA This extraordinary and very accessible book, based on the theme of social justice, offers vivid accounts of the diverse and complex lived experiences of migrants around the world through their own voices, rather than media accounts. Theresa Catalano masterfully analyzes their fascinating stories using metaphor and metonymy and provides original, pragmatic suggestions for teachers educating migrant children. Linda R. Waugh, University of Arizona, USA
