When I came to writing Every Leaf a Hallelujah, a book for the eternal child in us, I pondered how I was going to tell this tale. I knew I wanted to set it in the outskirts of Lagos. I knew its heroine would be a young girl. I didn’t have the story, only a strong impulse to tell a tale about trees and forests and our relationship to nature. For many weeks nothing happened.
