1 2 y separately published work icon The Road to Widgewong Leslie Lee , Sydney : Cornstalk Publishing , 1928 Z1183159 1928 single work children's fiction children's 'An account of the wanderings of two small boys who are escaping from the law, and trying to reach the safety of their home in the bush' (Brisbane Courier, Saturday 28 April 1928). 'Told in the first person by Joe who, with his friend Bob, becomes a boy swaggie. They run away from the city and go bush. On the road they meet real swaggies, discover the skeleton of a lost girl, and team up with King Billy—an aboriginal on walkabout. The usual Australian ingredients of bushfires and dingoes are there, and the whole is recounted in a laconic style that is perhaps meant to be an example of Australian terseness' (Saxby, A History of Australian Children's Literature 1841-1941, p. 170).
