Following your dreams and never giving up are the main themes in this special new children’s book.

Officer William Jimeno (co-author) shares his personal journey, which began as a young boy when he and his family immigrated from Colombia to the United States of America, where he followed his dream to become a police officer. William's life took an unexpected turn when, as a rookie officer, he and other first responders answered the call to save lives at the World Trade Center on 9/11. After the Twin Towers fell, William was trapped under the rubble for 13 hours before being heroically rescued; an ordeal captured by film director Oliver Stone in the major motion picture World Trade Center.

William Jimeno and co-author/illustrator Charles Ricciardi present valuable life-lessons along with colorful illustrations to bring this wonderful story to life. Appropriate for readers young and old, and inspiring to all.

“There is much to like about ‘Immigrant, American, Survivor,’ but what stands out when I share with my boys, is identifying with a person like Will, who comes from Colombia like my family. It’s great to recognize the accomplishments of Americans from all cultures and backgrounds.”
