The Heart Never Forgets (HC)

It's time for the masquerade! This West African festival will be full of costumes, music and dance. There will be foods like plantains, corn, and coconut balls. And memories. It will be this girl's first festival without her grandpa, but she is determined to honor him there. This moving story captures the complex feelings of longing and joy that can be tied up in traditions that are passed down for generations.
