SuitabookKate the Boss
Susan Saunders
- Reading
- Try reading together or checking in after the group’s disagreement. Invite your reader to notice how the characters handle different opinions; the ending is unclear.
- Themes
- Leadership and shared decisions: Kate takes over as director of the float, while her friends prefer Ginger’s design ideas and grow tired of being bossed around. The conflict raises questions about taking charge and making room for others’ contributions.
- Worth knowing
- The girls are described as fed up with Kate’s bossiness. If your reader is sensitive to friendship friction or feeling overruled, this disagreement may be worth mentioning beforehand.
