Zola's Light
By Iyesha Hodge
Abandoned. Different. Unseen.
Zola has spent her young life in foster care, feeling like a stranger in every home and in her own skin. With her pale complexion, silvery hair, and violet eyes, she's always stood out... but not in the way she wanted.
Everything changes when the Adebayo family enters her world.
Swept into a home filled with warmth, tradition, and love, Zola begins to discover the beauty in being different. From the vibrant colors of kente cloth to the soft rhythms of African lullabies, she is embraced not as an outsider, but as a daughter.
As Zola learns about identity, heritage, and the power of self-love, she realizes her light was never something to hide. It was always meant to shine.
Zola's Light is a heartwarming children's story about adoption, identity, and belonging. Perfect for readers ages 4 to 8, this story is a celebration of diversity, cultural pride, and the healing power of love.
