Book excerpt: This book delves into the profound challenges and triumphs of immigrant children navigating the educational landscape in America, which have been skilfully depicted in Marina Budhos's novels. In this thought-provoking work, the transformative power of intersectionality is artfully unravelled, offering penetrating insights into the lived experiences of these resilient young individuals. Central to this scholarly odyssey is the illumination of intersectionality as a conceptual framework, meticulously elucidating the intricate entanglement of multifarious oppressive dimensions faced by immigrant communities. By disentangling the interplay of race, gender, ethnicity, and socio-economic status, this work unveils the hitherto obscured realities underlying the migration experience. Engaging with the complexities of immigrant children's lives, it not only illuminates the academic discourse surrounding this issue, but also nurtures a profound sense of empathy, advocating a more enlightened and compassionate society that cherishes the diverse potential of all its young inhabitants.
