A story about the triumph of hope, love, and determination, Coming
to England is the inspiring true story of Baroness Floella
Benjamin: from Trinidad, to London as part of the Windrush
generation, to the House of Lords. Follow ten-year-old Floella as
she and her family set sail from the Caribbean to a new life in
London. Alone on a huge ship for two weeks, then tumbled into a
cold and unfriendly London, coming to England wasn't at all what
Floella had expected . . . What will her new school be like? Will
she meet the Queen? Filled with optimism and joy, yet deeply
personal and relevant, young children will follow Floella's
experiences of moving home and making friends. Alongside vibrant
illustrations by Diane Ewen, this powerful story shows little
people how courage and determination can always overcome adversity.
