Sunflower Sisters by Monika Singh Gangotra
An empowering story of sisterhood, which centres around best friends Amrita and Kiki. While the story offers a window into the lived experiences of those affected by colourism, it also celebrates the joy of the two girls experiencing each other's South Asian and Nigerian communities and traditions, in this case weddings.
