A Story About Afiya: Diverse & Inclusive Children’s Book
A joyful celebration of a young Caribbean girl’s childhood.
Some people have dresses for every occasion but Afiya needs only one. Her dress records the memories of her childhood, from roses in bloom to pigeons in flight, from tigers at the zoo to October leaves falling.
