Arizpe, Colmer and Martnez-Roldns work embodies the spirit of the texts they feature and their resource orientations to students. Through cross-cultural collaborations and research methodologies that attend to visual modalities, they provide a rich example of 21st century literacies that is sure to inspire researchers and teachers alike. -- Mara Paula Ghiso, Professor of Literacy Education, Teachers College, Columbia University, USA Product of an outstanding international research team, Visual Journeys Through Wordless Narratives offers the reader narratives by immigrant children about their feelings, emotions, experiences and knowledge inspired by Shaun Tans famous picture book The Arrival. Anchored in the metaphor of the journey, and using a visual journey as support, this unique, fascinating, and well-organized volume is a fine tribute to Tan and a genuine hymn to teaching and integration of immigrant children from diverse cultural and linguistic origins. -- Maria da Graa Pinto, Professor, University of Porto, Portugal This is a very important book. It is timely as it appears at a time when educators are beginning to explore the important place of visual literacy in intercultural education and in language education as migrations brings new diversities to classrooms worldwide. It offers, significantly, important resources for opening out the imagination and enabling new visions of critical and social learning to emerge, in a scaffolded context. The authors have produced an invigorating and excitingly intellectual contribution to the field of intercultural literacy studies. -- Alison Phipps, Professor of Languages and Intercultural Studies, University of Glasgow, UK In this evocative book, Evelyn Arizpe and her co-authors reflect on their ambitious research project to explore responses of immigrant children in Glasgow, Barcelona and Arizona to Shaun Tans complex wordless picturebook, The Arrival. Framed by Tans eloquent introduction and by the authors in-depth analyses of the students responses, the book offers readers new understandings of the power of visual narratives to engage these young immigrants literacy skills, personal reflections and imaginative powers. This is an important new international addition to texts on picturebooks, visual literacy and issues of immigration. -- Ingrid Johnston, Professor, Department of Secondary Education, University of Alberta, Canada Excellent research that examines the personal and social complexity of the immigration from the perspective of children's response on that subject in the picturebook. This study offers much more than an analysis of reception and interpretation of children's literature. Through a rigorous methodology of ethnographic and collaborative nature, this study contrasts the perceptions of informants from three contexts (Glasgow, Arizona and Barcelona) and feedback from children about their experience and their experiences on immigration are evaluated. The careful methodology of this study exposes the process of the navigating the interpretive
