W is for Welcome A Celebration of America's Diversity Written by Brad Herzog Illustrated by a collection of nationally acclaimed artists
Each year millions of people leave their homelands to start new lives in another country They emigrate from their birth nation and immigrate to a new one America in particular is made up of immigrants and their descendants Everyone is here because their ancestors once migrated moved from one place to another Some of them such as the ancestors of Native Americans migrated to North America very long ago Many others arrived against their will For instance hundreds of thousands of Africans were forced to come here and were enslaved But over the centuries the United States has welcomed millions of strangers to its shores Illustrated by Pam Carroll
