If Only You Knew
By: Emily Francis
Age Level: Young Adult
Emily Francis' memoir tells her story through a series of letters she writes to eight immigrant students in whom she sees pieces of herself. She shares memories from her childhood in Guatemala, where she worked in her mother’s fruit-selling business and helped raise her four younger siblings, through her journey into the United States as an undocumented, unaccompanied minor, and to her experience fulfilling her dream of becoming an award-winning educator of immigrant students and English learners.
