Autorenporträt
Annette Reis author, poet, singer, teacher.Annette was born in Stockport Cheshire to a Nigerian father and a black mixed heritage mother. As an adult she visited her family in Nigeria for the first time. In a traditional naming ceremony that would have been given if she had been there as a baby, Annette was named Omowale. This beautiful Yoruba name means Child Come Home. It was the inspiration for this book alongside her vivid impressions of Nigeria on her first visit. In her early years Annette wrote stories and poems encouraged by her sister, writer Christina Reis. Later it was author Peter Kalu's encouragement as the creative director of the black writer's group Cultureword/Commonword that led to her embarking on this children's novel. As a member of Stockport Writer's Group Annette regularly won prizes for her short stories.Annette has also co-written a play with Hazel Roy depicting the involvement of Nina Simone in the American civil rights movement. She played the role of Nina in one-woman performance that won an award at the Kathmandu International Theatre Festival. Annette is a singer on the classical, jazz, opera and contemporary circuit and has made T.V and radio appearances.
