To some of his new classmates, however, he is a chink who should go back where he belongs. But what if everyone whose family came from another place was forced to return to his or her homeland? Who would be left? This story teaches compassion for recent immigrants while sharing the history of immigration in America and some of the important contributions made by past immigrants. It is used in schools everywhere for units on immigration and tolerance. The Who Belongs Here? Teacher's Guide, written by Margy Burns Knight and Thomas V.
