Focus on using reading to celebrate and explore cultural, personal and local identities. My Two Grannies by Floella Benjamin and Margaret Chamberlain fits the bill just perfectly

My Two Grannies

My Two Grannies

When Alvina’s parents go away on holiday, her two grannies come to look after her. Both the grannies want to care for Alvina in their own way and they argue over who should do what. Alvina cleverly works out a solution to the problem by suggesting that Granny Vero and Granny Rose take turns, day by day, to do everything. Alvina then has the benefit of learning about two different cultures because each granny comes from a different country.
