Jacob's Day Trip to Jamaica

Jacob Udeh is 8 years old and lives in North London. He was keen to write his own book and as a seasoned traveller to Jamaica (he has been 3 times!) he was the ideal choice to pen our first book in our Caribbean Delight Series Jacob’s Day Trip to Jamaica which shines a spotlight on different Caribbean islands, the first being Jamaica. His first visit to Jamaica was when he was five years old and he has spent time on the island as a ‘tourist’, climbing Dunns River Falls with his dad aged 6 and swimming with the dolphins in Dolphin Cove.

Nia Lekuwa is 13 years old and lives in north east London. She is a keen sportswoman and has won gold medals in the 100 metre sprint, 400 metres, 600 metres, long jump and relay. She is Captain of her school’s football team and plays netball and rugby.  Nia has won awards for her writing and writes and performs raps. She spent four weeks holidaying in Jamaica in 2018 and loved the experience. Her favourite was visiting her great grandparents house in the parish of Saint Anns. She enjoyed working with Jacob on Jacob’s Day Trip to Jamaica which has inspired her to start writing her debut novel.
