Synopsis
An amazing, miraculous refugee story of coming to America, the young readers edition of Tani Adewumi's story will inspire kids looking for true stories of doing hard things. At eight years old, Tani Adewumi, a refugee, won the 2019 New York State Chess Championship after playing the game for only a year--and while homeless. Tani and his family fled Boko Haram's reign of terror in Nigeria to come to the United States, where they lived in a New York City homeless shelter while waiting to be granted religious asylum. Tani began attending a public elementary school and decided he wanted to join the chess program, but it required a fee. Tani's mother reached out to the coach, who offered Tani a scholarship--and a year later the young immigrant became a chess champion. Ideal for readers 8 to 12 years old, this adaptation presents compelling insight into: What it means to leave a comfortable home and move to a new country with nothing What it's like to live in America as a homeless family How it feels to be an outsider, a Nigerian, in a new school And what it means to learn a game, compete, and experience the thrill of winning Tani's story will inspire you to believe in the power of the human spirit to triumph over the greatest adversities. And his family's faith will inspire you to believe in miracles., At eight years old, Tani Adewumi, a Nigerian refugee, won the 2019 New York State Chess Championship after playing the game for only a year--and while homeless. His story is full of miracles and hope. Tani and his family's amazing story began amid Boko Haram's reign of terror in their native country of Nigeria. They fled their home to the United States, where they lived in a New York City homeless shelter as they waited to be granted religious asylum. Tani began attending PS 116, where his classmates were unaware that he and his family had no home. So when Tani asked his parents if he could join the chess program at school, which required a fee, it seemed unlikely. But his mother wrote to the coach, who offered Tani a scholarship. This adaptation will focus on the portions of Tani's story that will most interest young readers. The struggle of leaving his comfortable home and moving to a new country with nothing. Living in America as a homeless family. Having no TV, no games, no money. Wanting a place for his mom to cook meals and a refrigerator where he could get a snack whenever he was hungry. Going to a new school. Meeting a teacher who taught him the game of chess, which allowed him to learn, compete, and experience the pressures of the game and the ultimate joy of winning. Tani's story will inspire you to believe in the power of the human spirit to triumph over the greatest adversities. And his family's faith will inspire you to believe in miracles., My Name Is Tani Adewumi... and this is my story. This is what it was like to leave my home in Africa and become an immigrant in America. This is what it was like to live in a shelter, to try new foods, and to make new friends. But mostly, it's my story of finding a place to belong. My story is also about discovering my talent for playing chess and following in dreams of becoming a champion. Learning the game was hard, and I have to practice a lot! But chess is fun, and it feels really good to get better at something I love. I've shared some of my best chess tips with you in this book! My story is filled with miracles. Some of the miracles are big-like getting to come to America. Some seem small (but really aren't)-like being kind to each other. Miracles are all around us. All you have to do is look. Features Full-Color Photos, Sidebars, and Chess Tips from Tani. Book jacket.

    As described, shipped out quickly, well packaged, outstanding ebayer! No issues with this seller. Trusted eBay seller. If they say they will do it they will do it. If they say what it is then that's what it is. You need not worry if it will arrive intact, they pack it right. Unless it's beyond there control like a lunatic postal worker gone postal. There not greedy, the price is fair! An honest eBay seller Great because there's so many dishonest ones. I will buy in the future I'm sure. Thanks!
