COMING TO CANADA by Susan Hughes

(All images and reviews uploaded from Red Cedar Book Award site)

From the first Stone Age “immigrants” and right up to the present day, people have been coming to Canada from all over the world — by foot, boat, car, train, and airplane — to make this land their new home. Why did they leave? How did they get here? How did they learn to adapt?

Coming to Canada tells the stories of Canada’s immigrant groups, from the early French and English settlers to today’s refugees from war-torn places. With this book, you can imagine what their lives must have been like as they left their homes and made new lives in this vast country.

Really interesting. I never really thought about how many different peoples we have in our country. Very informative.
