NOMINATED FOR THE COMMONWEALTH WRITERS' PRIZE
Experience the gripping journey of Eyo, a spirited 10-year-old Nigerian girl, torn from her homeland and thrust into the UK in search of a better life.

Against the backdrop of two contrasting cultures, 'Eyo' immerses readers in the vibrant streets of Nigeria and the unfamiliar landscapes of the UK. Prepare to be swept away by Eyo's poignant tale as she takes you on an emotional rollercoaster that will leave you breathless.
