A young readers adaptation of Ronald Takaki’s multicultural U.S. history, drawing on firsthand accounts and diverse communities’ experiences.
A Different Mirror for Young People: A History of Multicultural America adapts Ronald Takaki’s historical work for younger readers. Rebecca Stefoff edited and adapted the text, published by Seven Stories Press through its Triangle Square children’s and young adult imprint.

This is a nonfiction history resource for ethnic studies and social studies rather than an individual literary selection.
