Reviews

Gourlay spins slender threads of wishes and prayers, magic and miracles, desires and redemption
and weaves together an impressively sweet and rich tale

—— Kirkus

I enjoyed Candy Gourlay's Tall Story

—— Observer

This is a story that is funny, sad and magical. I thought the author chose a good subject to write about because she wrote about very real emotions. She also added a bit of imagination which made it very interesting. The main characters tell the story in alternate chapters. I would recommend this book - pure brilliant!

—— Teen Titles

It's an inspiring story remininding us just how impressive a character Obama is

—— Bournemouth Daily Echo

Jacqueline Wilson writes with great skill and humour about the reasons and results of bullying . . . Very readable . . .Tanya and Mandy will remain in readers' minds long after they close the book

—— Junior Bookshelf

Mandy's multiple dilemmas are sympathetically unravelled in this super story of true friendship

—— Carousel

Treading a sensitive, complex path among ethical, social and family issues, and dealing with bullying, illiteracy and friendship, this is a skilfully judged story that provokes lots of discussion
