Sunday Chutney

Short listed for the CBCA picture book of the year, Sunday Chutney, by Aaron Blabey is a lovely look at how the main character “Sunday Chutney” deals with the difficulties of constantly changing schools.  Although she longs for  stability and sense of belonging, ultimately, she does not let anything get her down.

The publisher’s website: http://www.penguin.com.au/lookinside/spotlight.cfm?SBN=9780670071791 links to a video of the author, Aaron Blabey and a feature called “look inside” which displays the first few pages of the book.  We have the full copy in the library.
