✈️ KWAME'S JOURNEY ✈️ This book follows the journey of eight - year old Kwame in his migration from Guyana, South America to the USA in the late 1980's. It highlights the culture Kwame came from and the void of the new culture that resulted in culture shock. As Kwame tries to assimilate the new culture and accommodate to his new environment, there are numerous challenges: language barriers, accent, social norms.
