Description
Windrush Child, told through words and pictures
Benjamin Zephaniah’s Windrush Child, adapted into a graphic novel with illustrations by Markia Jenai.
Ten-year-old Leonard leaves Jamaica for a new life in England. As he finds his feet in a very different country, he faces racism and the challenge of feeling at home, while holding on to the family and places he loves.
A book to share with upper-KS2 readers, opening up discussion about the Windrush generation, belonging and identity.
“I’m currently sharing Windrush Child with my Year 6 class. I can’t wait to share the graphic novel version too!” — Rob
