You're Amazing, Anna Hibiscus!

Description

The eighth and final title in this brilliant series about Anna Hibiscus, who lives in Africa with her large extended family, by an internationally renowned Nigerian storyteller. In the eighth title of the series about the universally loved Anna Hibiscus, written by internationally renowned Nigerian storyteller Atinuke, Anna Hibiscus is worried: her twin brothers, Double and Trouble, have boundless energy. They won't stop climbing and they can't keep out of trouble! Meanwhile Grandfather is tired and can't stay awake. In the final book of this wonderfully charming illustrated series, Anna Hibiscus proves just how amazing she is.

Atinuke was born in Nigeria and spent her childhood in both Africa and the UK. She works as a traditional oral storyteller in schools and theatres all over the world. Atinuke is the author of two children's book series, one about Anna Hibiscus and the other about the No. 1 Car Spotter. Atinuke lives on a mountain overlooking the sea in west Wales. She supports the charity SOS Children's Villages. Lauren Tobia lives in Southville, Bristol. She shares her tiny house with her husband and their two yappy Jack Russell terriors. When Lauren is not drawing, she can be found drinking tea on her allotment.

It will show children that there are many types of people in the world, yet despite the fact that Anna's life may be very different from their own, children will find much to identify with. - Independent Bookshop Week supplement * The Guardian * This is an important message for all young girls to hear - we do not have to extinguish anyone else light in order to make our own glow brighter. * Children's Books Ireland *
