Like A Charm by Elle McNicoll

5.0

Just brilliant! I loved the main character in this and found her open discussion with the reader about the challenges with dyspraxia but also how woefully failed she is by school and society really moving and made me totally rethink my role as a teacher. Hearing from these voices is essential especially as children sometimes struggle to express those thoughts and will be affirmed by reading them.
It’s also a brilliant fantasy adventure set in Edinburgh! And I think there’s going to be a sequel which I will definitely be picking up as soon as it’s available!
