And So I Roar by Abi Daré – Library and Book Club Resources

Four years after The Girl with the Louding Voice captured half a million hearts worldwide, Abi Daré returns with a stunning, heart-wrenching new novel.

And So I Roar begins in Lagos, Nigeria, when a sudden knock at the gate in the middle of the night threatens to unravel everything plucky fourteen-year-old Adunni has worked for, just as she is set to restart her much-desired education.

To celebrate the publication of And So I Roar, we are delighted to offer a range of book club resources, including book club questions, bookmarks, posters, and a letter from Abi Daré introducing the book.
