Target: Need 5th grade level immigration books

[Leya Booth <lboot1@LAUSD.K12.CA.US>]

Help!  Our fifth grade teachers begin the year with a unit on the
experiences of immigrants from various countries to America.  We have
been borrowing books from our public library system, and particularly
like the Franklin Watts series, "Recent American Immigrants," which
although published in the early 1990s is of course now out of print.
The other series we have found seem a bit sophisticated for this
introductory report.  Any ideas on where I might purchase a set or
individual titles for this yearly theme?


Thank you in advance!
