Nice Girls Don’t Play Footy
Nice Girls Don’t Play Footy | Kathy Helidoniotis
1 post | 1 read | 2 to read
More than anything Devi Sharma wants to win the upcoming BollyOz competition for her mum. Then she’ll be on her way to becoming Bollywood’s first ever Australian half-Indian, sort of Kiwi, quarter Scottish, Vaisnavi vegan superstar! Then Devi starts AFL lessons at school and she’s surprised to find she has talent...and a feeling she hasn’t had in a long time. Can Devi convince her family to let her play AFL when ‘nice girls don’t play this football’ and her mum thinks it will risk her winning BollyOz? With the help of her best friend in the whole entire universe, Josie, Devi needs to come up with a plan so she can play footy like she wants and light the fire in her belly once again

Nice Girls Don’t Play Footy | Kathy Helidoniotis

Pickpick

This was a quick, straightforward middle grade read. A biracial Hindu girl is pushed toward being a Bollywood dancer by her mother, but after being selected for a specialist Catholic sports school she discovers a love of footy. The racism she encounters was perhaps not challenged enough IMO, especially in a book for very young readers (the MC is 12). But overall not a bad read.
