My Name is Mina by David Almond


If someone liked this book, what other books should they read?
My Name is Mina is a book about a nine-year-old girl named Mina who has been homeschooled because she doesn't fit in with her classmates. Mina starts keeping a diary about what happens to her.The diary is very disorganized and shows Mina's thoughts well. Throughout the book, Mina's surrounding people try to make her normal, but Mina shows them that she will be normal in her kind of way.
If you liked this book, you would like the book Mockingbird because they are both about kids who do not fit in.
