Maya at Eighteen: From Leeds Roots to Glasgow Studios
What the giver told us
Our daughter Maya is turning 18, and we want to celebrate everything she's been and is about to become. From the confident toddler who insisted on singing loudly at every bus stop in Leeds, to the teenager who survived the infamous year of the purple hair. We spent years freezing at Saturday swimming galas, but it was all worth it. We want to remember her first chaotic gig, the terrifying experience of teaching her to drive in Dad's beat-up old Corsa, and how incredibly proud we were at her sixth-form art show. Now she's packing up and heading off to art school in Glasgow this September. We'll miss her desperately, but Sam is already planning to take over her bedroom. This book is a reminder of her roots.
Dedication
Happy 18th Birthday, Maya! We are so unbelievably proud of the wonderful woman you've become. All our love always, Mum, Dad, and Sam. x
