Green - Gold band
A series of uplifting, warm, rom-com-style chapter books.
The quick, standalone stories feature everyday life, friendship and love from a wide range of perspectives and cultures – with plenty of strong female characters.
That includes Pashtun Laila, who is set on finding the perfect husband for her sister (her parents were doing a rubbish job)… Pro-gamer Becky, who’s been posing as a boy online, but is about to be ‘outed’ by an anonymous hacker… Aliya, who, because of her stammer, prefers to express herself through photography (until she notices a murky figure in the background of so many of her photos)… Yasmin, who strikes up a romantic friendship while fleeing war-torn Syria… And more.
Complete with our special writing/design, these books are sure to engage your less-able girl readers and develop their literacy skills.
