Multicultural Book of the Week



During World War II, one group of Americans were sent to prison for an act that many would find incomprehensible today: the act of existing. It was through the actions of individuals living over 2000 miles away that caused many Japanese-Americans to be placed into internment camps during World War II.

The Journey is a story of a mural that the main character painted that showed the deeply rooted racism that her relatives and other fellow Japanese Americans experienced while in U.S. concentration camps.

If you are in the Atlanta/Marietta/Kennesaw/Vinings/Sandy Springs/Buckhead area (Cobb County, Fulton County, Dekalb County, Cherokee County) and have any questions about the CRCT, SSAT, SAT, GED, Summer Tutoring, Orton-Gillingham, Handwriting Without Tears, Writing Strategies, or any methodologies or instructional methods that may help your child succeed, please contact me at cjoyjavier@gmail.com or visit my website at http://www.christinejavier.com/.
