Journey to a Dream
(Puffin Books)
978-0140364644, RRP £3.99, Paperback
10-14 Middle/Secondary
The Woods family trek to their farm and begin to try and cultivate fruit out of the wild in post Great War Australia. We follow this through the children's lives, particularly the wonderfully headstrong Belinda. The characters are rich and the drama of events is often very moving which make it good for reading aloud and a pleasure to be snapped up by fluent readers.
