A river pebble on a charm bracelet has an astonishing true story to tell of one family's bravery and survival in harsh colonial Australia... When artistic Millie visits a long-lost aunt, she learns the true story of her family's tragic past. Could the mysterious ghost girl Millie has painted be her own ancestor? In 1839, Charlotte Atkinson lives at Oldbury — a gracious estate in the Australian bush—with her Mamma and her sisters and brother. But after the death of Charlotte's father, things start to go terribly wrong. There are murderous convicts and marauding bushrangers. Worst of all, Charlotte's new stepfather is cruel and unpredictable. Frightened for their lives, the family flees on horseback to a stockman's hut in the wilderness. Charlotte's mother and the children must fight to save their property, their independence and their very right to be a family. Will they ever return together to their beautiful home? Based on the incredible true-life battles of Belinda Murrell's own ancestors, one of Australia's early artistic and literary families—the Atkinsons of Oldbury.

Anniversary edition of the first book Jackie French published with Angus & Robertson. This is where a truly remarkable career began.
'Rain Stones' and the other stories in this collection reveal that the country is a magical place, that there is an extra dimension to be found by those whose minds and hearts are open to the possibility. Michael knows that the hills around Canberra are sleeping dinosaurs waiting for darkness to fall to begin their nightly dance. Jacob is blind, but he can show his friends things they never dreamt existed. And Helen is hoping that the rain stones will bring rain to the parched land where everything is dying.
Powerful, imaginative and moving, this collection of short stories reveals the extraordinary early talent of this remarkable writer.

When Jessica sits down next to Francis on a bench one break time, he’s surprised to learn that she isn’t actually alive–she’s a ghost. And she’s surprised too, because Francis is the first person who has ever been able to see her.
Before long, Francis and Jessica are best friends, enjoying life more than they have in a long time. When they meet two more friends who also can see Jessica, the question arises: what is it that the children have in common? And is it connected with the existence of Jessica’s ghost?
The answer, when it emerges, is both surprising and moving–and leads on to a dramatic conclusion that none of them could have foreseen.

Caroline Chisholm was born in England in 1808 to a well-to-do farmer and landowner William Jones, and his wife Sarah. She grew up in a time when immigration to far-flung places like Canada and Australia was on the rise. Coupled with tales of foreign lands from the visitors who frequented the Jones family household, Caroline became enchanted by the notion of living and working overseas where she began her philanthropic work.
In 1839 Caroline returned to Sydney where she went on to undertake a long list of astonishing initiatives that helped shape Australia’s social infrastructure and pave the way for the success of its national multicultural community, including migration
reforms, safe and comfortable passage for immigrants, reuniting families, creating safer passage to the goldfields, unlocking the land for families to settle and establish farms and small businesses, and the hugely successful Family Colonization Loan Society, which allowed families the financial means to emigrate to Australia.
Henry Parkes once said Caroline Chisholm alone was responsible for the successful colonisation of Australia (Henry Parkes’s Empire newspaper, 15 August 1859). Indeed, she set in place the philanthropic mechanisms that put family, children, health, housing and education at the forefront of the Australian way of life.
