Tender Earth cover

A gorgeous coming-of-age story, and a return to the world of Artichoke Hearts, as the youngest member of the Levenson family, Laila, starts secondary school and finds her voice at home and in her community. From Sita Brahmachari, winner of the Waterstones Children's Book Prize.

Laila Levenson has always been the baby of the family, but now with her older siblings, Mira and Krish, leaving home just as she starts secondary school, everything feels like it's changing... can the reappearance of Nana Josie's Protest Book and the spirit it releases in Laila, her friends and her local community, help her find her own voice and discover what she truly believes in?

A powerful chime rings through Laila's mind, guiding her to walk the footsteps of the past on her way to discover her own future.
