Amber Class: Making Friends - Paperback

Enomwoyi Damali was born in Trinidad, but has long lived in London, where she works as an educational psychologist. Her long professional experience in a highly diverse community gives authenticity and veracity to her stories of Amber Class and their ever-resourceful teacher, Mrs. Adisa. Enomwoyi, whose name means "she has grace and charm", describes her goal as "to help children think about and practice the personal development skills and qualities needed to live life fully and to treat each other with love and respect."
