A review by matildai
Dear Greta by Yvette Poshoglian

hopeful informative inspiring lighthearted medium-paced

3.0

It's the last year of primary school for Alice.  She feels like she is living in her sister's shadow and always being compared to her, so Alice is hoping that this year, it will be different. 

One of Alice's school projects is to write to one of their idols.  Greta Thunberg is Alice's assigned project.  While Alice loves Greta she feels a little disappointed.  

Then Alice decides to email Greta and tells her everything that is happening in her life.  Her grandmother now living in her room to her annoying sister, and also the new school project for Harmony day. 

While this novel is aimed at tweens, as an adult, I really enjoyed this story. It's honest and thoughtful but a dash or grit an determination.
