What the writer Rhian Tracey does is to excel at her craft, she is a paradigmatic role model to aspiring authors for the younger demographic, who both need and deserve books of this calibre in their lives.
I definitely believe that school libraries should offer her works a welcoming home on their shelves, to both inspire and enthuse it's pupils.
The reason I make these claims is not to indulge in mere hyperbole, but to aver that combining entertainment, excitement and educational instruction is possible - if you are Rhian Tracey that is. The strong female characters overcoming difficulties and discrimination in their lives are a refreshing change from the heroines of my own childhood in the sixties.
Ned, the main protagonist is an excellent creation. He is kind, positive and strives to make his troubled world a better, kinder, less discriminatory place.
