A review by nerdinthelibrary
Meet Marly by Alice Pung, Lucia Masciullo

4.0

This book was full of surprisingly deep and realistic themes of racism in Australia, and it made it a real contender for my new favourite Our Australian Girl series. There was discussion of refugees, refugee camps, racism, ignorance, there was even a comment from the main character about all the Asian characters on tv being "kung fu masters, villains or criminals." I really hope my sisters library gets the rest of these so I can read the next book!
