RELEASE NOTES:

For the share table or a special bookcrosser...

Thank you so much for thinking of me wombles!

The true story of three aboriginal girls removed from their families in the 1930s and taken to a native settlement where they were to be taught the European ways. They run away from the settlement and trek 1600 kilometres home following the rabbit-proof fence which runs from south to north in Western Australia.

This is an incredible story - these girls trekked further and in harsher conditions than many of our heroic European explorers. It is beautifully told too, the author is very talented.

CONTROLLED RELEASE NOTES:

Stowaway in a bookbag to catbot ... thought I'd keep the Aussie theme going.

Thanks RockDg9! A nice surprise sent with my "Tomorrow When the War Began" books 1-4 on their return trip :)
