This book contains six short stories, all which are set in Australia. If I have enough knowledge about Australian history, culture and discrimination against Australia's Aboriginal people, I would have been able to get a better understanding of the authors true points. Reader should study about Australia before read this book.
In the six stories, I like first one. It tells the story of a boy, who was depressed over his bird's death, and whistling kettle. The kettle came to the boy instead of the bird which had been kept by the boy. His delight, which was derived from getting whistling kettle, and purity made me feel warm inside.
English language school in the heart of the Japanese Alps, and English language learners sharing their experiences online. Teachers post regular items about teaching, learning tools, events in the school, their day to day experiences living & working in a foreign country. Students post on whatever takes their fancy - book reports, festivals in home towns, postcards from business trips etc. A little Brit of England in the guts of Japan!
Jun,
ReplyDeleteI added the front cover & some labels for you this time.
How do you recommend finding out more about Australia's rich aboriginal cultural history?
Which part of the country were the stories from?
