Description:

Margaret is fourteen and wants to help her best friend, Zulma, escape from Canada and fly back to Tobago to live with her grandmother. But, coming to terms with growing-up, relationships and responsibilities is not quite so straitforward, and the parental threat of 'Good West Indian Discipline' is never far removed. This is a charming, humorous and perceptive tale of adolescence and the friendship of two young African American girls.
