AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Three young boys embark on a Huckleberry Finn type adventure with an Australian flavour, camping by themselves in the bush. A mixture of scary stories and mysterious noises keep readers guessing as to what will happen next. This is a very light, easy-to-read book that will have particular appeal to boys. Rights of passage and the whole father/son relationship are viewed in a balanced manner.' (Publisher's blurb)
