READER’S REVIEWS
The Adventures of Romy is such an amazing book. It is just lovely. I could not put it down for days. I read it over and over for days. My mum and I read it together. Even she loved it.
It is the best book I’ve ever read, especially because it inspired me to learn the fiddle.

Pearl, aged six
I loved it so much I wish I wrote it. That was a wonderful story.
Ruby, aged eight
A delightful and captivating book! I can think of no better book to give a child in middle primary school or as a resource in school libraries. My enjoyment of this story was possibly enhanced by the relief that it was so refreshingly uncomplicated and without the dark overtones of much children’s literature today. Five stars!
