When Clouds Touch Us by Thanhhà Lai. 256 p. HarperCollins Publishers, May 9, 2023. 9780063047004.
Last week, when Mr. Schu posted an interview and cover reveal for When Clouds Touch Us by Thanhhà Lai, I emailed my sixth grade LA colleague immediately. She got so excited as well. Inside Out and Back Again is a sixth grade class read and beloved. Mark your calendars. May 9 is the pub date. Here's the a short synopsis via Mr. Schu's website:
When Clouds Touch Us tells the story of Hà and her family two years after becoming refugees. Yes, she now speaks English and eats lunch in the cafeteria, instead of the bathroom, with actual friends. But then her mother announces they must move again, to Texas, which Hà can’t even pronounce. In many ways the long task of rebuilding proves even more daunting than fleeing war in panic.
