The Mudskipper—award-winning playwright and writer Ovidia Yu’s first book for children.
It’s the story of Lizhi, a ten-year-old girl of mixed heritage, who arrives at her father’s home in Singapore after his death to meet his family. Lizhi realises soon enough to her dismay that she’s an unwelcome guest there. Her frosty Aunt Mona makes no secret of the fact that she considers her niece nothing but a nuisance.
Lizhi’s only friends are Bwe Bwe, the young Indonesian maid and the mysterious old man in the garden with whom she feels a strange sense of kinship. One day while exploring the house, Lizhi finds a beautiful stone carving of a mudskipper, a fish-like creature she identifies with. Little does she know that there are many more secrets to be discovered in her father’s old home.
