Opinion
From Library Staff
Zura loves her grandmother but is afraid grandma’s tribal facial markings will cause Zura’s classmates to treat Nana unkindly. This is a lovely story about a child and a grandparent who talk over a problem and find a solution.
It's Grandparents Day at school. Zura loves her Nana, but she's unsure of what her friends will think of Nana Akua's traditional Ghanaian tatoos.

I think many kids could relate to being a bit embarrassed of their grandparents.
