Key Selling Points

A young girl learns to stand up for herself and her best friend in this chapter book. This is a story about friendship, loyalty and inner strength.
The main character, Kiara, is an eight-year-old Indian girl who would rather blend into the background than have to stand up to a bully. Her best friend is an eight-year-old Chinese boy, and they enjoy lighthearted banter about their cultural differences.
This is a ‘bullying’ story with a twist of a magical genie who would grant unlimited wishes if he weren’t on vacation. Genie Meanie delves into the serious topic of bullying with both candid realism and over-the-top humor.
The author won the Silver Birch Award for The Third Eye and The Tiffin was named one of the top five Books for Young People by Quill & Quire.
Features 15 black-and-white illustrations.
