Lara Zany is Potts Court Primary School's Official Friendship Matchmaker. She's made it her business to help kids 'Make and Keep' friends, sort out problems between friends and advice kids on ways to avoid bullies. I really enjoyed this book and it had a great explanation on how you don’t have to change your personality or looks to make friends that you can keep forever.


Rate 4/5!

I loved this book. It showed how much fun we used to have in primary school. The pressures, the good times and the bad times. I like the idea of the friendship matchmaker, it was really creative and funny. I love Randa! If you like this book check out 'does my head look big in this' funny, witty, smart! Join my book club : Chick flicks 4 U. We'll have fun and talk about books like these.

The Friendship Matchmaker by Randa Abdel-Fattah


Lara Zany, Potts Court Primary School's official Friendship Matchmaker is absolutely convinced that her Rules work. That is, until Emily Wong turns up. Emily breaks all of Lara's Rules and tries to prove Lara wrong. Emily challenges Lara to a competition-they each have to take a Losesr Loner(LL) and find them a best friend. Emily shows Lara that you don't have to change your personality to find a friend. 


I liked how the book revealed a message-that you don't have to changeyourself to find a friend.


Star rat ing: 4/5
