Onjali leapt to fame with her first book, The Boy at the Back of the Class. A warm-hearted, humorously told story of children who befriend a refugee child, it won the 2019 Waterstone’s Children’s Prize. She has followed this with The Star Outside My Window, the tale of a child in foster care on an important quest. Onjali’s award-winning and highly accessible books tackle tough topics with love and empathy – and they are exciting and funny, too.
