The kindness project

Abela, Deborah, 1966-2024
Book
Nicolette and her nanna are a perfect fit, just like the jigsaw puzzles they do together. Nicolette feels like she doesn't fit with anyone else, until a new boy at school called Leaf stands up to the class bully, DJ. When their teacher announces class assignment The Kindness Project, where students must come up with ways to make the world a kinder place, Nicolette is happy to be paired with Leaf but not so happy that the others in their group are DJ and popular girl Layla, who has made it her life's purpose to make Nicolette feel invisible. The group can't agree on what to do. It's a disaster! But as the group gets to know each other better, Nicolette realises they all have more in common than they first thought. Then Nicolette has a wonderful idea for their Kindness Project. But will she be able to convince the others to go along with her plan?
