Resumen del Editor
For the very young. Narrated by the author.
Owen's grandmother was tired of talking to her grandson through the little black box. Something had to give but what? Can Owen really help his grandmother? Enough was enough with the computer tablet. Owen's grandmother leaves her island on the west coast of Canada and travels with her dog onto the ferry. Together they drive through rivers and mountains to the big city where Owen lives. They are so happy to see each other but the dog eats the chocolates after they have gone to the zoo. Can Owen save his grandmother? Good for bed time with a sleepy ending.

For as long as she can remember, June Bug and her father have traveled the back roads of the country in their beat-up RV, spending many nights parked at Walmart. One morning, as she walks past the greeter at the front of the store, her eyes are drawn to the pictures of missing children, where she is shocked to see herself. This discovery begins a quest for the truth about her father, the mother he rarely speaks about, and ultimately herself.

In the 70s and 80s, thousands of Hmong families made the journey from the war-torn jungles of Laos to the overcrowded refugee camps of Thailand and onward to the United States, all in search of a new place to call home. Decades later, their experiences remain largely unknown. Kao Kalia Yang was driven to tell her own family's story after her grandmother’s death. The Latehomecomer is a tribute to that grandmother, a remarkable woman whose spirit held her family together.
