The Dugong and the Barracudas

by Ranjit Lal

Available now★★★★★

Sushmita is a sweet, gentle girl who is a little slower than the other kids, and she starts at Rugged Rocks High. Even the principal worries that she is like a dugong dropped into a tank of barracudas. Ranjit Lal uses humour and warmth to look at bullying, prejudice and special needs. It's a story that helps young readers see the world through someone else's eyes, and it leaves a lot to talk about as a family.
