The spirited Anna Hibiscus leaves the city to visit her grandparents' remote village in this sixth adventure in the well-loved series set in contemporary West Africa.
Anna Hibiscus lives in Africa, Amazing Africa, in a country called Nigeria, in a city called Lagos. Anna is going with her family and grandfather on a trip to the village where her grandparents used to live, to stay in a house that has long been in their family. The city travelers ride on a packed, sweaty bus through the rainforest, through dusty scrubland, and through fields of bananas and oranges and sugarcane. When the bus lets them off, the village is still a long walk away through the bush. Anna has never been to the bush before—there is no road, no running water, and no electricity! There is plenty to learn, and friends to make too, as Anna's escapades continue in this charming series from Atinuke and Lauren Tobia.
