Extract - The Travelling Bookshop by Katrina Nannestad illustrated by Cheryl Orsini

CHAPTER 1

Books and bumps and bare bottoms

I’m Mim. I’m ten years old and small for my age. My full name is Miriam-Rose Cohen, but I prefer Mim. I have long, wavy hair the colour of chocolate. Not the stuff with nuts or raisins or crispy toffee bits. That would be weird. My hair is just the colour of plain dark chocolate. My eyes are big and brown, and I have a red bump in the middle of my forehead.
