A picture book about immigration, Watch Me is based on the author's father's own story.
Joe came to America from Africa when he was young. He worked hard in school, made friends, and embraced his new home. Like so many immigrants before and after him, Joe succeeded when many thought he would fail. In telling the story of how his father came to America, Doyin Richards tells the story of many immigrants, and opens the experience up to readers of all backgrounds.

Acclaimed artist Joe Cepeda brings the story to life with beautiful paintings, full of heart."synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
