I liked the diversity of the people included. There were quite a few I didn’t know about. Definitely didn’t appreciate the white-washing of the people who are much darker-skinned in real life.

Some of the bios seemed to end a bit abruptly and/or the bit about their youth/adolescence seemed short.

A terrific meaningful read.This is an ode to immigrants who come to America to find a home.These special people come here get educated become successful and enrich aour country.I enjoyed reading about all these immigrants who make America the wonderful country it is.#netgalley#randomhouse

I really enjoyed America Is Immigrants. It was a quick, informational read about the people who have truly made an impact in our world. The book certainly opened my eyes to many important people I wasn’t aware of and shed light on the positive impact that they’ve made. I’d recommend this book to anyone looking to expand their worldview!

The moment I saw the name of the book - I was eager to read it.

America is a county that WAS built by immigrants and IS a country of immigrants. This specific publication has combined a large list of successful people who have made Americal as we know it today.

The US is home to foreign-born athletes, artists, civil rights leaders, inventors, scientists who have migrated to America and contributed to its history & leadership, medicine & food industries, social media & entertainment, industrial and technology inventions, etc.

It's a wonderful and short read, that simply boosts with positive energy. Thank you, NetGalley, Random House pub and Sara Nović for a free and advanced copy of the wonderful book.

Darn right, America is Immigrants! I loved this book! We cannot let anyone defeat the purpose of the American dream, the American promise of welcoming immigrants and refugees. You are safe here. You are welcome here. We need that promise back.

3.5/5

"America Is Immigrants" is a wonderful collection of short biographies on famous immigrants in the United States. The book features everyone from athletes to diplomats to scientists. It shows how valuable immigration is to our country and the contribution immigrants have made to our country. I loved that included biographies of people from different time periods in American history and from a variety of countries.

This book would be a great addition to a classroom (most likely elementary school or early middle school) and useful for lessons on immigration in the United States.

It's nice to see the illustrated biography collection that has been so hip in kids publishing expand into the adult sector.

Beautiful overview of the multitude of immigrants who’ve contributed amazing things to the world. It features short bios organised into different categories/industries, along with portraits of many of them.

A wonderful collection of quick snippets about migrants who have made the United States what we are today. From Hollywood to pop culture to medical breakthrough and scientific innovation.....we are a country of immigrants and we need to embrace this.

This would be a great book for a school library and a US History teacher to help bring immigrant stories alive.

I found this a curated list of assorted immigrant names with no depth. Perhaps it could prove useful for young readers or in some classrooms, but it certainly has no place in a college library.

It is a cute to share with children, but there are so many others, better organized, that I would hesitate to recommend purchase.

Thank you Netgalley.
