Notes

  • Author's note: After Ruth park's time traveling [sic] children's novel.
  • Author's note: Inspired by the 1980 children's book of the same title written by Ruth Park and set around Sydney's Rocks. It features refernces to streets, galleries and architecture of this area. In the book, the main character is suddenly swept back to 100 years in the past where she meets Beatie Bow, a name that has become a scary time traveling [sic] game in her modern world.
