AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'When Bindabinda's teacher tells her she's too big for her boots, she worries about what it might mean. The last time she wore shoes was two years ago. When all the kids in her class start to tease her about having a body too big for her feet, Bindabinda takes things into her own hands and decides to stop eating.' (Source: Fremantle Press website)
