Silly Nomads book review series

BY MAKAYLA B.

So, in a time like this with this COVID-19 threat, everyone really needs a picker-upper; something to make them laugh. Something to change everyone’s mood, from sad, sombre, miserable, disheartened, gloomy, glum, lugubrious, moody and blue, to happy, joyful, merry, cheerful, delighted, ecstatic, heart-warming, cheery, blissful and boisterous!

There are quite a few books that can do that, but one of them is the series: Silly Nomads expertly written by the marvellous M. E. Mohalland and skilfully illustrated by Kate Santee.

This amazing story has been weaved, trapping the reader, like a bug in a spider’s web. This story is about two boys who always find something to do. The brothers have untamed imaginations and are able to take charge and create their own fun. They definitely understand that you are responsible for your happiness.

The entrancing story takes place in Palmerston Close, Jamaica. It starts off when brothers, Suhcrom and Nadih, who watch a documentary about Nomads, sparking that wild-fire of an imagination and giving them the idea to be Nomads the next day, and that’s what they did.

The brothers spend many days enjoying their time together and being Nomads, until something happens, suddenly causing the brothers imagination trains to change course and head in an entirely different direction.

In the next few editions, I will go into detail about my favourite parts of the book, and why this is probably the best book for young people to read while they are quarantined. Look forward to sharing.
