In this story, JoJo is excited to show Gran Gran around the city
farm - it's been a few months since she was last there, and she
can't wait to see Melanie the chick again. But when they arrive at
the chicken enclosure, they can't find the little fluffy chick -
where could she be? About the show JoJo & Gran Gran is the
first British-made animated show to feature a black family at its
centre. It is based on characters created by Laura Henry Allain,
whose own grandmother inspired the character of Gran Gran. Each
episode shows a loving relationship a grandmother has with her
granddaughter, a celebration of their shared world heritage and
wonderful introduction to key preschool first experiences. JoJo
adores her grandma, Gran Gran, and they love to spend time together
while JoJo's Mummy and Daddy are at work. Gran Gran always has
something exciting planned when JoJo comes to visit. Each picture
book will retell the story of a well-loved TV episode, followed by
a picture glossary and activity spread to encourage readers to take
the themes from the book into their everyday.
