Book Review: The Thirteenth Home of Noah Bradley by Amber Lee Dodd




This middle grade book had me hooked from the start. I'd almost call it a fairytale in a way. And we all know how much I love my fairytales! It's an easy read with a sweet MC and fun plot. Not a complex story but it is directed at younger readers so that fits in nicely with the book. The dynamics between the characters was lovely and didn't dip into the usual cliches. I recommend it to all readers 8+ and I give this book 4.5 stars.

Thank you Scholastic Australia for providing me with a copy in return for my independent and honest review.


Synopsis: The Bradley family are constantly escaping from a centuries-old curse which means that every home they ever live in is destroyed by a typhoon or flash flood that affects no other houses on the street, or they are chased out of town by a flock of persistent birds. They have just moved to their thirteenth house and Noah wants this one to work out he's got some good friends at school and desperately wants himself and his deaf brother Billy to put down roots. But the curse returns so he must find a way to break it.
