At eight years old, Tani Adewumi, a Nigerian refugee, won the 2019 New York State Chess Championship after playing the game for only a year--and while homeless. They fled their home to the United States, where they lived in a New York City homeless shelter as they waited to be granted religious asylum. His story is full of miracles and hope.Tani and his family's amazing story began amid Boko Haram's reign of terror in their native country of Nigeria.
So when Tani asked his parents if he could join the chess program at school, which required a fee, it seemed unlikely. Tani began attending PS 116, where his classmates were unaware that he and his family had no home. But his mother wrote to the coach, who offered Tani a scholarship.This adaptation will focus on the portions of Tani's story that will most interest young readers.
