1-3Anna Hibiscus series.
Illustrated by
Lauren Tobia.
These installments of Atinuke's chapter-book series--set in a contemporary "big busy city" in "Africa. Amazing Africa"--revisit themes of family, tradition, biracial/bicultural identity, wealth disparities, friendship, and more. Satisfying resolutions for most of the personal and broader troubles Anna Hibiscus faces arise through guidance from her elders and her own thoughtful introspection, along with large helpings of humor and goodwill from those around her. Review covers these Anna Hibiscus titles: Go Well, Anna Hibiscus!, Love from Anna Hibiscus!, Welcome Home, Anna Hibiscus!, and You're Amazing, Anna Hibiscus!.
