Have just completed a couple of books quite quickly really. My son recommended to me Will by Maria Boyd. He loved it and I can see why. It was funny, current and dealt with grief. He (my son) quoted from it at a family dinner discussion when he felt I was stereotyping. I love it when he does that kind of thing. Makes me feel he is literate:-). I enjoyed it too.
The other book was Helicopter Man by Elizabeth Fensham, which won the Children’s Book Council of Australia award this year for younger readers. It had a similar theme as No Worries in some ways. I won’t go into it and spoil it for would be readers, but it too was enjoyable.
Camille
I heard this artist on triple J so many times on my way to work and it has taken incredible effort to track down the name. I can’t find much online about her but I discovered this clip on YouTube
Enjoy, I hadn’t seen the clip, I quite like the naked knitting theme in the video. There is another cool clip of the song but can’t put it here, so if you’re interested click here. It’s playful and I really like it.
Terracotta Warriors
I would love to go and see this place. I think this is amazing and Chinese history is one of the things I love learning more about.
