"This delightful book is 'the way we were.' A nostalgic evocation of growing up in 1940s country and city in Queensland, Australia. Des and I shared the same times and I can vouch for the authenticity of those long ago years. These are the words we used, the things we enjoyed. We were fortunate that for both of us our childhoods were secure and strengthened by family love." Earle Cross, Australia "In this book the powerful effect of friendship and relationship so openly narrated from such a young and tender heart transcends everything else." Geraldine Schwartz, Canada
