Critics Review
The voice of the child in this story is powerful and I liked that Nutty was open with us as the reader, and I think getting to watch her grow and realise things when she needed to worked well as well – it’s how many of us learn as kids and it ensured that nothing was forced.I definitely want to read this one again -I loved it so much, and it is an awesome debut novel! Well done, Tami! I hope those who pick it up enjoy it, and find something within it that they can identify with.
* Ashleigh Meikle *A scrumptiously honest sharing of the exhilarations and anxieties of life as a twelve-year-old girl in Jewish Sydney. This novel crosses generations through its colourful and genuine characters… A hilarious and heartfelt novel with valuable representations, this is a fantastic read for children around 9-12 years old and a great point for discussion on topics such as growing up, gender, discrimination, and religion. * Reading Time *Author Tami Sussman has turned a sacred cultural celebration that many of us are unfamiliar with, into a witty and inclusive novel. It’s a wonderful read and indeed, an all-round gem. Highly recommended. * Reading Time *About The Author
