Synopsis

A heartwarming verse novel from beloved Australian children’s author Deborah Abela.

Ms Skye thinks kids can change the world
with a Kindness Project.
Nicolette wants to
but how can she
when Layla treats her like she’s invisible
and DJ picks on everything she says?
Leaf thinks Nicolette can be a
superhero.
So maybe
if they work together
they just might do it.

A heartwarming story about four kids who overcome their differences and take on the world.


‘An absolute gem of a book!’
Maryam Master, author of No Words

“The Kindness Project shows us the strength and transformative power of kindness. Told with tenderness and creative verse, this book will sweep you off your feet and live in your heart permanently.” Zanni Louise, author of Queenie in Seven Moves

After training as a teacher, Deb travelled to Africa, where she was trapped in a desert sandstorm, harassed by monkeys and thrown in jail twice. She trained as a teacher before becoming writer/producer of a national children’s TV show at Network TEN. She’s since written 30 internationally published and awarded books, including the Max Remy series, her climate change trilogy, Grimsdon, New City and Final Storm and The Stupendously Spectacular Spelling Bee. Her CBCA Notable, The Book of Wondrous Possibilities, is about the power of books to save us when we feel lost. Her latest books are, The Kindness Project, a verse novel about how even the smallest act of kindness can change the world and her picture book, No More Room in the Bed. www.deborahabela.com
