VINTAGE 1960 'The Rocks of Honey' by Patricia Wrightson - Australian - Ex Library

"The Rocks of Honey" by Patricia Wrightson

Hardcover.

"This is a story about life in the Australian bush, about aboriginal legends, and about friendship. The chief characters are a farmer's son called Barney, Eustace Gordon the 'abo' boy who becomes his friend, and Winnie Bates, who wants to join in their expeditions and is finally accepted when she helps them find the mysterious stone axe and the curse on it. It is a tale of adventure and mystery, but it is also full of poetry and the special atmosphere of the 'sunburnt country'. It will help Australia come alive to anyone who reads it. For children of ten and upwards."
