Granny Came Here on the Empire Windrush, by Patrice Lawrence, is a mesmerising journey that invites young readers to uncover the vibrant history of the Windrush generation immigrants to the UK.
This wonderful tale follows Lana, a young girl keen to discover her family's rich heritage, and offers an engaging exploration of identity and belonging. I loved Camilla Sucre's illustrations are depply evocative, with a slight film noir mood to them.
This book is a powerful tool for sparking meaningful conversations about multiculturalism and the importance of knowing one's heritage. Lawrence's narrative and Sucre's wonderful illustrations will captivate young minds and help foster deeper understanding of our diverse world.
