Summary/Abstract |
In the central Australian desert two school children, survivors of an air crash, meet an Aboriginal boy on 'walkabout' - a lonely trek he must undertake before achieving manhood. The bush boy can hunt, fish, find water, and kindle fire - all the skills the city children lack. A story of their journey together, and how they try to understand one another. Shelved with the Heinemann Windmill Series.
