Spotlight on Margy Burns Knight

Margy Burns Knight was born in Pennsylvania and moved to Maine to attend college in 1972 where she still resides and teaches English as a Second Language. Her multicultural books are engaging and excellent starting points to begin introducing different cultures to your child. In addition to Talking Walls and Talking Walls: The Stories Continue, she has written Who Belongs Here?: An American Story, a story of a Cambodian boy who immigrates to the United States to escape his war-torn country,Welcoming Babies, an amazing book about welcoming ceremonies and an excellent gift for new parents, and Africa Is Not A Country, a beautiful picture book that features children in different African countries. She’s also authored a Spanish version of Who Belongs Here? An American Story: Quien Es De Aqui: Una Historia De America.I highly recommend these books to any parent or teacher who wants to teach their kids about different cultures, compassion, and tolerance.
