Description
A Kind of Spark by Elle McNicoll is a powerful and thought-provoking story about a girl who refuses to let the past be forgotten. When she learns about the witch trials that took place in her small town, she becomes determined to campaign for a memorial to remember those who were wrongly accused.
The author, who is also neurodivergent, brings a unique perspective to this historical topic, highlighting the struggles faced by those who are different. This is a story about the importance of understanding and acceptance, and the impact that one person can have when they stand up for what they believe in.
With its insightful and stirring debut, this book is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in history, social justice, and the experiences of neurodivergent individuals.
