Tani’s New Home: A Refugee Finds Hope and Kindness in America
Ages 5-9; Pub Date: Nov. 24, 2020; Picture Book
The incredible true story of Tani Adewumi, a Nigerian refugee who garnered international news coverage after winning the New York State Chess Championship at the age of eight.
Tani’s story of finding a new life in America reminds children that perseverance and hope make a difference–and small acts of kindness can make the world a better place.
Tani was just six years old when he and his family fled persecution in Nigeria and became refugees in New York City. Tani was amazed, and a little overwhelmed, by all the new things in America.
But one new experience turned out to be the most wonderful discovery–chess! With joy and determination, Tani studied hard, practicing chess for hours on the floor of his room in the homeless shelter.
Less than a year later, he won the New York State Chess Championship, and through one act of kindness after another, found a new home. This exciting book about chess, family, and community reminds us all that home is a place where you can follow your dreams.
