Highlights from book signings, reading sessions, and events
My 7 year old daughter loved this book and was so impressed it was written by a kid. Highly recommend!
I bought this book for my nephews and I am so pleased to see a young writer with such a strong voice. I can't wait to hear more from this promising young lady.
This book was fantastic. Such a great read on a topic that many children must go through when a friend moves away. Being a young author, her storytelling accurately captures the feelings of the main characters from their view.
My daughter truly enjoyed "My Best Friend Moved Away." It was so well written & captured the emotions of the two friends. What a great read & great way to convey a heartfelt message. Continue the great work!
Kudos to the writer in writing such a thoughtful and easy to read book! My son loved it as it reflected his life/feelings with his best friend moving away. Looking forward to buying more books written by Myra Manji.
I bought this book for my 7 yr old nephew but my 9 yr old son was the first to read it. The illustrations are beautiful, and I highly recommend this book to anyone who would like their kids to read a positive & uplifting story about friendship and bonding.
