Finding Me

 Tonia Enahoro is a regular schoolgirl studying relentlessly to escape from her detested Makoko Island water home in the future. Edward Landis is a rich, biracial newbie who found companionship in Tonia at school. Tonia lives with her aged single mother; Edward also lives with his aged grandmother. They come from two different social statuses but live in the slums.  Over the years, their friendship develops. Edward wants to take things to the next level, but Tonia would rather wait. He plans a canoe picnic for two, but Tonia accepts his invitation with the condition that she returns early to her ailing mother and younger ones. This decision would change the course of her life. Finding Me is a coming-of-age story of perseverance and the will to fight against all odds. It's a story about young adults finding themselves in circumstances that change them, their worldview, and the path they choose to take to succeed.
