\"10+<\/a>\u201cVery few writers really know what they are doing until they\u2019ve done it.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Anne Lamott\u2019s quote has always resonated with me for two reasons. One is that you don\u2019t really know how to write a book until you get in there and write one.<\/p>\n

The second is that sometimes you don\u2019t even realise what you\u2019ve written until you reach The End \u2013 and, even then, sometimes not until someone else<\/em> tells you.<\/p>\n

In the spotlight today is my good friend Allison Rushby<\/a>, the author of many books for children, YA and adults, who can also relate to this quote.<\/p>\n

Discovering what you\u2019ve really written<\/h4>\n

When The Turnkey<\/a> was released in 2017, I was overjoyed with the reviews it received \u2013 until \u00a0one stopped me in my tracks.<\/p>\n

The reviewer called The Turnkey<\/em> “surreptitiously feminist” and I found myself reading her review over and over again, because it made me think A LOT about exactly what it was that I’d written.<\/p>\n

Now, don’t get me wrong, the review in question was a lovely one (you can read it in its entirety here<\/a>). In her review, one of the main points the reviewer makes is that, throughout the novel, Flossie remains in charge.<\/p>\n

No older male steps in to tell her what to do, or how to save the day. Rather, she’s put in charge of large groups of men, including soldiers, and these men all happily report back to her as she works out how she’s going to save her cemetery and country.<\/p>\n

At the time of reading this eye-opening review, I was finishing up the first draft of The Seven Keys<\/a> (the second book in The Turnkey series, released this month with Walker Books Australia). I began to ask myself if what I was writing was also “surreptitiously feminist”…<\/p>\n

I didn’t have to ponder this question long. There was nothing “surreptitious” about it. By the end of The Seven Keys<\/em>, almost every key role in London’s twilight world is filled by a female character. The Seven Keys<\/em> is just flat-out feminist.<\/p>\n

When it comes to the portrayal of females in others’ work, I wasn’t surprised to find that a lot of the middle-grade fiction I connect with also has strong female protagonists. I do so love a good go-getting heroine. A girl who GSD (Gets Stuff Done) just like Flossie and her friends do in The Turnkey<\/em> and The Seven Keys<\/em>.<\/p>\n

With this in mind, I came up with a list of some of my favourite GGSD (Girls Getting Stuff Done) middle-grade\/upper-middle-grade reads that I hope you and your little reader love as much as I do.<\/p>\n

10+ GGSD (Girls Getting Stuff Done) Middle Grade reads<\/h4>\n

Out Of My Mind<\/a> by Sharon M. Draper<\/strong><\/p>\n

Melody’s body might not be strong (she has cerebral palsy), but her mind is fierce. She’s on a one woman mission to let her classmates know just how smart she really is.<\/p>\n

The War That Saved My Life<\/a> and The War I Finally Won<\/a> by Kimberley Brubaker Bradley<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ada’s fight for self-worth and a life to call her own is absolutely heartbreaking, as is her carer’s backstory of love and the loss of her partner. Together, these strong-willed characters manage to help each other strive for a happy ever after.<\/p>\n

The One and Only Ivan<\/strong><\/a> by Katherine Applegate<\/strong><\/p>\n

The star of the show is Ivan (a caged gorilla who lives in a shopping mall), but clear-eyed Julia, the custodian’s daughter, is underrated in this tale. Her actions and courage will stay with you for a long time.<\/p>\n

The Ateban Cipher series<\/strong><\/a> by A.L. Tait<\/strong><\/p>\n

In a world of monks and a stolen illuminated text, it takes a couple of smart girls to get in there, work out what’s going on and begin to set things to rights.<\/p>\n

The Family with Two Front Doors<\/a> by Anna Ciddor<\/strong><\/p>\n

Set in 1920s Poland and centred on a very religious Jewish family, this might seem a strange choice, but the historical setting and different way of life provides so much to discuss from a feminist perspective.<\/p>\n

Everything I’ve Never Said<\/a> by Samantha Wheeler<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ava is desperate to communicate with her family, but Rett Syndrome makes this impossible. That is, until some new people in her life allow this strong, driven character to finally show the world her true personality.<\/p>\n

The Ratcatcher’s Daughter<\/a> by Pamela Rushby<\/strong><\/p>\n

It’s 1900 and Issy’s father is a rat-catcher. When he becomes ill, it’s up to Issy to \u2013 wait for it \u2013 help rid Brisbane of the plague.<\/p>\n

Lenny’s Book of Everything<\/a> by Karen Foxlee<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lenny’s world is falling apart, but how she deals with this (and, especially, her mother’s abusive partner) shows the depth of her character.<\/p>\n

A Single Stone<\/a> by Meg McKinlay<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jena must deny herself food and wrap her limbs in order to stay small so she can slip inside rock crevices and retrieve precious mica. It is only when she begins to question the inconsistencies in her world that she can be set free.<\/p>\n

Front Desk<\/a> by Kelly Yang<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mia’s immigrant parents are doing it tough and so is Mia, who tends the desk at the Calivista motel while they clean rooms. She might be small, but this tenacious heroine packs a lot of “I can do it!” action into one book.<\/p>\n

Allison Rushby<\/a> is the author of more than 20 books. Her latest middle-grade novel, The Seven Keys<\/a>, is the sequel to the award-winning The Turnkey<\/a>. You can find her on Facebook<\/a> and Twitter<\/a>.<\/strong><\/em>
