Winner of The Branford Boase Award 2022 | Shortlisted for the Blue Peter Awards 2022 Best Story | Longlisted for the UKLA Book Award 2023 ages 7-10

Danny Chung loves art. Unfortunately, everyone else – parents and schoolfriends alike - thinks he should love maths. Then his grandmother arrives from China, and she and Danny have to share a bedroom. It feels like a catastrophe, but could funny, intelligent Nai Nai turn out to be his best friend?

The Branford Boase judges commented : ‘well-rounded characters and I loved the depiction of the intergenerational relationship’; ‘you could feel the author’s love for the story she was telling’; ‘it provides a really important perspective’; ‘I’ve never read anything that describes the diasporic experience so specifically.’
