Sofia the Dreamer
Winner of a Go Fund Me award, this fantasy-poem unravels the history of natural hairstyles and encourages children to love all of who they are.
Every Sunday afternoon, Sofia’s mum washes and combs her hair. Whenever her hair is touched, Sofia becomes very sleepy. Sofia travels in her dreams visiting a Jamaican Rastafarian, African ancestor and Black Panther whose stories help to unpick the history, heroes and joys entangled in afro hair.
Rasta Granny's Rainbow
A gorgeous story about cooking Jamaican food with Granny. Dylan is feeling low, and Granny knows just how to lift his spirits... she'll show him how to make a rainbow! From red ackee to orange plantain, and a rainbow of colourful fruit, this beautiful, uplifting story shows the richness and deliciousness of Jamaican foods. Young children will love guessing the next colour on this magical journey of food and family love.
Rasta Granny's Rainbow features simple, lyrical recipes for such classic dishes as fried plantain, fruit cake and duckanoo. From award-winning poet Jessica Wilson, with talented illustrator Rochelle Falconer.
