When the Bitter Bush Blossoms - Paperback

by Jean Goulbourne (Author)

It's 1959 in Cross Keys, Jamaica, and Janelle is excited to go to Portsea and spend time with her cousins, Selena and Diana. But things are not all going well. At home her baby brother Mikey is showing worrying developmental delays, and her parents are arguing over the nativity play her dad wants to write. She's also struggling to find friends at school, and, worst of all, cousin Diana seems to have joined a cult. Janelle writes everything down in her diary in this touching and sweet historical story.
