Every child is full to bursting with amazing things! This joyful
poem celebrates the wonderful and complex identity of children of
immigrants and refugees, embracing all that they are - a dancer, a
shining light, a K-pop song - and promising what they will never
be: invisible. Award-winning picture book author and poet Bao Phi
and illustrator Hannah Li remind young readers through lyrical text
and fantastical illustrations that who they are and what they love
will always be enough.

A 2018 Caldecott Honor Book that Kirkus Reviews calls "a must-read
for our times," A Different Pond is an unforgettable story about a
simple event - a long-ago fishing trip. Graphic novelist Thi Bui
and acclaimed poet Bao Phi deliver a powerful, honest glimpse into
a relationship between father and son - and between cultures, old
and new. As a young boy, Bao and his father awoke early, hours
before his father's long work day began, to fish on the shores of a
small pond in a Western city. Unlike many other anglers, Bao and
his father fished for food, not recreation. A successful catch
meant a fed family. Between hope-filled casts, Bao's father told
him about a different pond in their homeland of Vietnam. Thi Bui's
striking, evocative art paired with Phi's expertly crafted prose
has earned this powerful picture books six starred reviews and
numerous awards.
Co-creation is fast becoming a buzz word in tourism. Traditional
approaches to value creation in tourism suggest that operators and
suppliers produce goods and services which are consumed by
tourists. The value produced is usually measured in economic terms.
Co-creation challenges these assumptions, arguing that tourism
producers and consumers co-create value together and that this
value is more diverse than just economic value. Technologies
underpinning social media, ratings and review tools and e-commerce
are facilitating the creation of diverse values, and have been
responsible for driving innovation in, for example, new business
models such as the collaborative economy. Social, environmental,
emotional, reputational and other kinds of value may also be
produced, and a wide range of stakeholders, not just producers or
consumers, might also benefit from the value co-creation process.
This edited volume seeks to go beyond the dominant
business/management/marketing perspectives that focus on the
co-creation of market value and innovation, to excavate complex and
critical episodes of co-creation in tourism. By engaging authors
from both the academy and beyond, it explores the rich historical
linage of co-creation and its contemporary practices. The chapters
in this book were originally published in Tourism Recreation
Research.

A Tale of Two Cities (1859), Dickens' greatest historical novel,
traces the private lives of a group of people caught up in the
cataclysm of the French Revolution and the Terror. Dickens based
his historical detail on Carlyle's great work - The French
Revolution. 'The best story I have written' was Dickens' own
verdict on A Tale of Two Cities, and the reader is unlikely to
disagree with this judgement of a story which combines historical
fact with the author's unsurpassed genius for poignant tales of
human suffering, self-sacrifice, and redemption.
When the Berlin Wall fell, Germany united in a wave of euphoria and
solidarity. Also caught in the current were Vietnamese border
crossers who had left their homeland after its reunification in
1975. Unwilling to live under socialism, one group resettled in
West Berlin as refugees. In the name of socialist solidarity, a
second group arrived in East Berlin as contract workers. The Border
Within paints a vivid portrait of these disparate Vietnamese
migrants' encounters with each other in the post-socialist city of
Berlin. Journalists, scholars, and Vietnamese border crossers
themselves consider these groups that left their homes under vastly
different conditions to be one people, linked by an unquestionable
ethnic nationhood. Phi Hong Su's rigorous ethnography unpacks this
intuition. In absorbing prose, Su reveals how these Cold War
compatriots enact palpable social boundaries in everyday life. This
book uncovers how 20th-century state formation and international
migration—together, border crossings—generate enduring migrant
classifications. In doing so, border crossings fracture shared
ethnic, national, and religious identities in enduring ways.
