A magical and entertaining story for younger Primary years and early independent readers!
Nina, born in London to Indian parents, learns through the power of a school project, an eccentric auntie and a magical travelling spice shed, how to love her heritage and share that with her peers.
I found the story very sweet and simple, with a strong moral, and lots of action. It was gripping and full of unexpected little extra twists, mirroring how a longer book might jump across settings and switch between plots, which I appreciated as a teacher.
