Harriet's Daughter (1988)
Margaret is fourteen and wants to help her best friend, Zulma, escape from Canada and fly back to Tobago to live with her grandmother. But, coming to terms with growing-up, relationships and responsibilities is not quite so straitforward, and the parental threat of 'Good West Indian Discipline' is never far removed. This is a charming, humorous and perceptive tale of adolescence and the friendship of two young African American girls.
