- About the Book
-
Each story in this anthology of childhood memories is vivid, authoritative and immediate, bringing us the privileged view of family life and relationships from a child’s perspective. Each writer has a different voice, and a different way of remembering. Between them, we see glimpses of suburban, bush, mountain and city life; large families and small ones; sibling competition and friendship; ‘bad’ children and ‘good’ ones; safety and terror. This book is a cheerful salute to the child, to the wisdom of the child, and to those revisiting childhood, however old you are.
