Hush to Roar by Toyin M Okunuga
Bas is the only Black child in an all-white village in the UK,
growing up surrounded by the unconditional love of her foster
family. Suddenly her idyllic, carefree childhood, is shattered
when her birth parents decide to take her to Nigeria.
Thrown into an alien and confusing world, eight-year-old Bas is renamed
Toyin and has to adapt to survive in her new life in West Africa. For the first
time Toyin is forced to cope with betrayal, family secrets, and abuse.
After sharing her personal insights into the effects of her childhood trauma
with readers, and her efforts to comprehend the mindset of her perpetrator,
Toyin must ultimately learn to forgive, in order to continue her inspirational
journey to recovery.
A profoundly moving memoir, yet dotted with hilarious moments, Hush
to Roar is the inspiring story of one woman's quest to find her voice and
overcome her past to live abundantly in the present.
