The Six Misfits - the seventh misfit

Book excerpt: Dylan Lewis' classic LGBT adventure series of six teens growing up in Australia, not fitting in with people other than themselves, has a new episode. This is a classic story of bullying, racism and victory over hatred by six young people who are a 'bit different' to other teenagers. Including a gay boy, a lesbian, a transgender girl, a teen baby and a couple of 'non-conforming' girls/princesses, the group embraces a seventh misfit - a Muslim international student. It is a wonderful story of real life for teenagers who aren't part of the 'pack', but who not only win over their opponents, but embrace another in the process. And if you like field hockey, you will enjoy this book even a little more.
