A fabulous anthology of stories about water, in all its forms, from ten of Australia's leading authors for children.
Australia is an island surrounded by ocean. Children grow up either near the sea, have holidays by the sea, or spend time on rivers, canals and dams. This collection of stories highlights the influence of water on children's lives. From Libby Gleeson's exciting story 'Rain', which deals with the effects of flood on a small rural community, to Brain Caswell's 'The Cave' - a thrilling race against the tide for two children trapped in a coastal cave - and Susanne Gervay's story of a long, hot summer holiday by the sea, the stories present an enormous spectrum of characters and situations - all in one book!
