*Birdsong Press*
"This coming-of-age story, set in Australia in 1950, centres on two
boys from a safe suburban world. Thinking they're in trouble, the
pals decide to run away. Soon, they face new adventures and
daunting challenges head-on. David Tredinnick is nothing short of
outstanding as the boys travel, meeting a happy-go-lucky Irishman,
a soft-spoken priest, an older Aborigine man and his nephew, and
many others. Each voice for more than a dozen unique characters
sounds perfectly distinct. Tones vary for the boys' parents, a
classmate is given a nasal whine, and an Italian miner and a Middle
Eastern man have appropriate accents that never waver. It's an
exciting trip for the boys and for listeners, as well, as the two
mates discover the true definition of home."
