Between Two Shores was created to meet children where they are, caught
between two worlds, belonging fully to both. The fifteen stories draw on
the real experiences of Haitian-American families across the United
States, from Miami's Little Haiti and Brooklyn's Flatbush to Boston,
Chicago, Philadelphia, Hartford, Newark, and Washington, D.C. Each story is rooted in Social-Emotional Learning: self-awareness,
between two worlds, belonging fully to both. The fifteen stories draw on
the real experiences of Haitian-American families across the United
States, from Miami's Little Haiti and Brooklyn's Flatbush to Boston,
Chicago, Philadelphia, Hartford, Newark, and Washington, D.C. Each story is rooted in Social-Emotional Learning: self-awareness,
empathy, and confident identity. Research shows that children who see
themselves in the books they read grow stronger in literacy, empathy, and
a secure sense of who they are. Haitian Kreyòl is treated here as the treasure it is: a living language
spoken by more than twelve million people, born from African languages,
French, Spanish, and TaÃno, and shaped by centuries of creativity and
resilience. Try the words aloud, whatever your background. Language is
one of the strongest bridges between people. Haiti is the first Black republic in the world, free since 1804 after the only
successful revolution of enslaved people in history. The children in this
book are heirs to that courage, and so is every child who holds these
pages. Mèsi. Thank you for reading.
Nou ansanm. We are together.
