Many talented and skilled immigrants came to America from various places in the world and brought with them their own cultures and traditions to enrich the American way of life. In this inspirational title, readers learn about some of the most famous lives and accomplishments of immigrants such as Canada's Elijah McCoy, Russia's Irving Berlin, Father Edward Flanagan, and Chinese architect I. M. Pei. The fascinating sidebars, vivid scrapbook layout, and lively images work in conjunction with the easy-to-read text, helpful index and table of contents, and accessible glossary to give readers an enlightening and enjoyable experience as they move through from cover to cover. About Shell Education Rachelle Cracchiolo started the company with a friend and fellow teacher. Both were eager to share their ideas and passion for education with other classroom leaders. What began as a hobby, selling lesson plans to local stores, became a part-time job after a full day of teaching, and eventually blossomed into Teacher Created Materials. The story continued in 2004 with the launch of Shell Education and the introduction of professional resources and classroom application books designed to support Teacher Created Materials curriculum resources. Today, Teacher Created Materials and Shell Education are two of the most recognized names in educational publishing around the world.
