Children's Book Reviews: All-female adventures, a ghostly adventure for young readers 

Children's Book Reviews for March

This week’s selection is for nine-plus to young adult readers of 15-plus. We start with a brilliant all-female adventure; leading onto a coming-of-destiny story steeped in West-African mythology; followed by a ghostly family saga. For older readers, we have a hugely warm Bollywood style romance, a gritty young adult novel set in modern day UK and a page-turner dystopian fiction set in the remote Scottish highlands.
