A beautiful story from award-winning poet Jessica Wilson, about a young girl whose family moves from their home in Jamaica to make a new life in England.Leaving the warmth and comfort of her tropical island behind, Firefly Stars follows our heroine and her sister as they follow in their mother's footsteps and adjust to life in unfamiliar London.This poetic story of home lost and remade will resonate with anyone who has had to move to a new country.Without shying away from the challenges faced by the Windrush generation, this unique picture book is threaded with the warmth and love between mother and child, even when separated by oceans. Perfect for exploring emotions and building empathy.The gorgeous artwork perfectly captures the feel of mid-century Britain and the rich beauty of Jamaica.
