The Boy from the Mish by Gary Lonesborough
5.0
emotional hopeful inspiring fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes

I really loved this! Sometimes I struggle with books that don’t have much of a plot but while not a lot was happening in this book, the simple nature of the story really made Jackson’s journey to finding and embracing his identity beautiful and heart wrenching! I especially loved the parts of the story that explored the aboriginal culture and I’d love to read more stories like this!
