Today, we bring you a story about books — but also about belonging, memory, and what it means to feel seen.

Across the United States, as immigration continues to shape political debate and family life, children’s books are becoming something more than stories on a shelf. For many immigrant and refugee children, they are becoming places of recognition, healing, and even refuge.

In Portland, Maine, one organization has made that mission its work: I’m Your Neighbor Books, founded by children’s literacy advocate Kirsten Cappy.

In an interview with Amjambo Africa, Cappy shares how stories can help children navigate fear, separation, identity, and hope — while also inviting communities across America to rethink what it means to welcome newcomers.
