Class novel for term 3


The 10pm question by Kate De Goldi.
This novel is gearing up to be a good one! Written by a New Zealand author, we are introduced to Frankie Parsons, a talented year 8 boy with a quirky family, a best friend Gigs, and a voice of anxiety constantly nibbling in his head. When a bold, inquisitive new girl arrives at school, Frankie's carefully guarded world begins to unravel, leading him to a painful confrontation with the ultimate 10pm question.
We are finding it easy to relate to the characters...especially when the opening chapters have included references to completing a science fair investigation! Keep an eye out for student reviews later on in the term!
