Description - Living in America without Leaving Liberia by Morrislyn Grear

A beautifully illustrated graphic novel that explores immigrating and making and managing friendships near, far, and online.

Has one really left home if their family and friends come with them? In this era of modern immigration, newcomers can stay connected with friends and family back home and elsewhere in the world through social media, but how does this affect one's ability to make new friends in their new community of residence?

Morrislyn's story is presented in Standard American English with highlights in Liberian English, the dialect of Morrislyn's youth.
