blue feet monsoon: a funny and uplifting page turner where you're never too different or old

A rare and compelling example of TCK fiction in the YA genre, Blue Feet Monsoon follows Anoushka as she grows up between cultures, rebuilding her world every time she lands in a new country. Home feels everywhere and nowhere at once, and she must answer the question that won't let her go: Who am I when everything keeps changing? A girl, a few fearless grannies, and a monsoon or two... It's 1981, and fifteen-year-old Anoushka has lived in seven countries without causing trouble - until she falls in with the sharp-tongued old ladies of Singapore's Saint Beatrice Hospital Elderly Ward, and everything begins to unravel in unexpected ways.
