An enthralling historical novel of immigration, courage and first love from an award-winning New Zealand author.
Eloise and her family must leave Cornwall on a treacherous sea journey to start a new life in 1870s colonial New Zealand. On the ship across, Eloise meets Lars, a Norwegian labourer travelling below decks, and their lives begin to intertwine. When her brother disappears, her father leaves and the family are left to fend for themselves in their new home, Eloise must find the strength to stand up for what she believes in and the people she loves.
I highly recommend this book! I couldn't put it down. A very enjoyable read.
I love the characters in this book, I felt like I was invested in their lives.
I missed them very much and quickly ordered the next book when I'd finished it.
This is a really easy to learn and fun game suitable for all ages. I love playing it with my 10 year old as it is quick yet not too fast paced. It feels like much more civilised game than many other contemporary games.
Beautiful book of Poems Uncle Wes Marne was a very remarkable man selflessly sharing his Aboriginal culture
Lots of info about consumption of clothing and new innovations to cut down on waste.
