This heart-warming and heartfelt picture book from multi-award-winning author Patrice Lawrence introduces the struggles and achievements of a generation of African Caribbeans who traveled across the Atlantic to call a new country home.
Ava is asked to dress up as an inspirational figure for her school assembly, but who should she choose? Granny suggests famous familiar figures such as Winifred Atwell, Mary Seacole, and Rosa Parks, and tells Ava all about their fascinating histories, but Ava’s classmates have already claimed them—and she must choose someone else. But who?
When Ava finds a mysterious old suitcase and Granny shares her own history of how she came to England on the Empire Windrush many years ago, Ava realizes that there is a hero very close to home?— her very own brave and beloved granny.
“A loving family story that pays tribute to the often unseen but no less powerful moments of courage.”
—Kirkus Reviews
