the New-Kid Map: a Picture Book About Biracial Military Kid, Move Across Ocean, and Finding You're Not Only One

Some kids move once. Marvin moves with the Army. Marvin keeps a hand-drawn map of every town the Army has sent his family to - every creek, every friend, every road home. He's always been the new kid... and the only kid who looks like him. Then his father gets new orders: Berlin. A new country. A new language. A blank page he can't bring himself to start. But the courtyard across the ocean is full of kids who are mixed too - and one of them is Black and Korean, exactly like him. For the first time in his life, Marvin is not the only one. The New-Kid Map is an own-voices picture book (ages 4-8) for the kid who's always starting over - about military moves, being biracial in every new place, and the quiet superpower of making any place home. A heartfelt gift for: * military and Army families (PCS moves, deployments) * mixed-race, biracial, and Blasian families * Korean American and Black families >Every map starts blank - and every blank can fill with faces like yours.
