Compassionate Chrissie and the Magic Melons - Yishebah Emunah Emunah Baht Gavriel;Bryony Dick

When Chrissie spends her very first summer holiday in England, far away from her sunny home in Trinidad, to stay with her Aunty Ngozi and her twins, everything feels new and a little strange.

Chrissie loves mangoes, melons and coconuts, but this summer brings more than her favourite fruits. From village children and a secret melon patch to her aunty's curious melon carvings, Chrissie finds herself on unexpected adventures that help her discover a different side of herself.

Then there's Mr Olsen, a grumpy old man who doesn't seem to like anyone at all. But is he really as miserable as he appears?

A heart-warming story about curiosity, kindness and unexpected friendships.
