Diana and the Island of No Return by Aisha Saeed
5.0
You are Stronger than you Realize
Diana and the Island of No Return by Aisha Saeed is a fast paced, action packed adventure. Diana has never left her home Themyscira before, and she longs to find her purpose when her mother refuses to let her learn how to fight. When a boy comes desperate for help, Diana and her friend Sakina, must find a way to protect their family. Diana has to learn how to use her unique talents to solve almost impossible problems. Her greatest strengths are her belief in her friends, determination in the face of failure, and courage despite being afraid. I also enjoyed the strong themes of teamwork, and the importance of telling the truth. Diana is at her best in this book, as she shows the numerous reasons why she is such an iconic, and well-loved character. It is good to see more books with great female characters, who are celebrated for being themselves. This book is appropriate for young readers 8 - 12 Years, and has an accessible reading style, and length.
