Learn moreIn ordinary times, Tola lives in an apartment in Lagos, Nigeria, with her clever sister, Moji; her sporty brother, Dapo; and bossy Grandmommy. Tola is so happy! But news of a new virus—and a lockdown too—sends Moji away in one direction and Dapo in another. Then, when Grandmommy can no longer go out to work, Tola goes instead. She works for the wealthy Diamond family and makes new friends among the household staff. But even the wealthy have problems—and only Too Small Tola is big enough to solve them. Brimming with genuine emotion and ultimately reassuring, Atinuke’s third book to feature the brave and endearing Tola shines with the light of resilience and hope.
Atinuke was born in Nigeria and spent her childhood in both Africa and the United Kingdom. She is the author of the Anna Hibiscus series and Baby Goes to Market, B Is for Baby, Catch That Chicken!, and Africa, Amazing Africa. She currently lives in Wales.
Amaka Obiechie was born to two Nigerian immigrants in America but was raised in Nigeria. She came back to the States to study theatre arts at Columbia College where she performed in many plays. She has lent her talents to feature-length films, television shows such as The Mindy Project, and numerous voiceover projects. She currently resides in Los Angeles, California.
