Book Synopsis Cambodian Dancer by : Daryn Reicherter
Download or read book Cambodian Dancer written by Daryn Reicherter and published by Tuttle Publishing. This book was released on 2015-11-10 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: **Winner of the Moonbeam Children's Book Award Silver Medal for Non-Fiction —Picture Book** This beautifully illustrated children's book tells the story of a little Cambodian girl forced to leave her old world behind and find a new home in America. In clear but simple language and vivid illustrations, this Cambodian children's story communicates a sense of the joy, sadness, injustice and triumph that lives on in young Cambodian Americans. It shows that it is possible to overcome great hardship, and that a single decision can do much to heal one's self and others. The Cambodian Dancer is the true story of a Cambodian refugee—a dancer and teacher—who built a life in the US after fleeing the Khmer Rouge. She became a counselor to other Cambodian refugees and created a school of dance for children. Her gift of hope was to teach children in the Cambodian community the traditional dances of Cambodia so that young people growing up far away from the land of their ancestors would know about their culture.

Book Synopsis Bones that Float by : Kari Grady Grossman
Download or read book Bones that Float written by Kari Grady Grossman and published by Bones That Float. This book was released on 2007 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "On March 24, 2001, American writer Kari Grady Grossman entered a crowded orphanage outside Phnom Penh, Cambodia, and met her 8-month-old son. One of the first questions Kari asked was 'How did he get here?' The complex and at times heart-wrenching answer is told in this magnificent book that encompasses Kari's personal journey to adoption, Cambodia's gruesome history of war and genocide, and the stories of two Cambodians -- one who escaped the Khmer Rouge's bloody reign and one who did not. The interweaving stories grab your heartstrings and do not let go. From the moment Kari realizes that she will never be an 'earth momma' practicing prenatal yoga to years later as Kari wends her way on the back of a moto-taxi through Phnom Penh's smog-choked streets trying to make a difference in her son's birth nation, you can't read impassively. 'Bones That Float' takes you into the Khmer Rouge jungle where boy soldiers force starving families to labor all day at gunpoint, and it brings you to modern-day Phnom Penh streets where foreign pedophiles purchase the innocence of preteen Cambodian girls. But ultimately 'Bones That Float' -- a Cambodian phrase for the sacred that rises above the suffering -- is a tale of hope. Kari reminds us that our world is 'one big family' and that we cannot -- or dare not -- turn our backs on people who suffer in part because of our country's own foreign policy missteps. To read 'Bones That Float' is to open your heart to caring." ... "In a village called Chrauk Tick in the Cardamom Mountains of Cambodia, 485 children are the first people to learn to read and write. Armed with literacy, they are taking the first steps to change their lives. Our students have been featured on Voice of America demanding the rule of law to save their forest from illegal destruction, inspiring 100 primary school dropouts to choose the classroom instead of the fields. To continue this progress, the school will bring education sustainable cooking fuels, forest agriculture, a revival of music traditions, and communication technology to reach the outside world." ...

Book Synopsis Forced Migration and Mortality by : National Research Council
Download or read book Forced Migration and Mortality written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2001-05-13 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years the number of complex humanitarian emergencies around the world has been steadily increasing. War and political, ethnic, racial, and religious strife continually force people to migrate against their will. These forced migrants create a stream of new challenges for relief workers and policy makers. A better understanding of the characteristics of refugee populations and of the population dynamics of these situations is vital. Improved research and insights can enhance disaster management, refugee camp administration, and repatriation or resettlement programs. Forced Migration and Mortality examines mortality patterns in complex human- itarian emergencies, reviewing the state of knowledge, as well as how patterns may change in the new century. It contains four case studies of mortality in recent emergencies: Rwanda, North Korea, Kosovo, and Cambodia. Because refugees and internally displaced persons are likely to continue to be a significant humanitarian concern for many years, research in this field is critical. This is the first book to comprehensively explore forced migration and mortality and it provides useful material for researchers, policy makers, and relief workers.

Book excerpt: “Henry Smith’s father told him that if you build your house far enough away from Trouble, then Trouble will never find you.” But Trouble comes careening down the road one night in the form of a pickup truck that strikes Henry’s older brother, Franklin. In the truck is Chay Chouan, a young Cambodian from Franklin’s preparatory school, and the accident sparks racial tensions in the school—and in the well-established town where Henry’s family has lived for generations. Caught between anger and grief, Henry sets out to do the only thing he can think of: climb Mt. Katahdin, the highest mountain in Maine, which he and Franklin were going to climb together. Along with Black Dog, whom Henry has rescued from drowning, and a friend, Henry leaves without his parents’ knowledge. The journey, both exhilarating and dangerous, turns into an odyssey of discovery about himself, his older sister, Louisa, his ancestry, and why one can never escape from Trouble.
