Synopsis

Look Back! celebrates the relationship between a grandmother and her grandson as she tells him about her Caribbean childhood adventures in the rainforest in search of a mysterious creature called Ti Bolom. Is Grannie's Ti Bolom real or just one of her stories? This is a beguiling tale that weaves the traditional experience with a modern curiosity.

The rhythms and repetitive patterns of Caribbean language are a rich component of the story as is typical of Trish s work and the illustrations have that marvellous realism that is a hallmark of Caroline s many successful books.
