Adaora takes America

Meet Adaora, an inquisitive five year old girl, who was sent to
Nigeria to live with her grandmother when she was a baby.
She's on her way back to America, and is totally unprepared for her new life.

Slightly based on the author's own
upbringing, she wanted to capture the immigrant
experience from a child's perspective.
