Book
Learning to fly / written by Paul Yee.
Jason, a recent immigrant from China, makes some bad decisions as he comes to terms with small-town racism while trying to fit in.
"A young Chinese immigrant has trouble fitting into Canadian small-town life. A friendship with a First Nations boy shows him that not all racial prejudice is directed at newcomers to Canada. This book is intended for use by young adults, but adult ESL and aboriginal learners could certainly relate to this novel." – October 2008 Exemplary Literacy Materials Online Reviews.
