A review by moggmogg
Robbie Forester and the Outlaws of Sherwood Street by Peter Abrahams

2.0

Robbie Forester comes in possession of a special bracelet that seems to grant magic powers when justice needs to be served. When a rich real estate investor begins buying up (and strong arming) local businesses out Robbie and her mismatched group of friends fight back, Robin Hood style. A quick read, this story does ask the reader to suspend a great deal of belief. I liked how Robbie is a not necessarily rich but sees the issues of poverty and inequity in her neighborhood and with her friends. A good read for those who like realistic fiction with a dose of magic and putting it to the bad guys. MS
