This mid-grade adventure is boy friendly:
exciting, and fun to read.
exciting, and fun to read.
Set in the Australian outback, on Coorparoo Cattle Station, the story takes
readers into the mid-part of 1900's. Taconi and his chatty cockatoo mate
Claude have a bunch of serious problems: his upcoming man ceremony, a scary
Medicine Man, his dad's crazed ideas, and a wild emu that turns Taconi into
a hero of sorts. Not to mention a walkabout for snake, witchetty grubs and
yabbies, plus how a young aboriginal boy is supposed to fit into both his
tribe and the world of the white man. However, his feathered mate Claude is
a mixed blessing. The mischievous bird offers great one-liners, but then almost
gets Taconi eaten alive by green ants.
