Nanberry black brother white
by jackie french
I choose this book in Scorpio Bookshop in Christchurch just after Christmas. I was there with my brother and my Dad because i had not found a good one in ages. I bought it with my own money. I choose this book because it had an enticing cover and I read the back and the story sounded interesting.
The cover has a an old painting kind of look with with a photo of a small boy who I thought would be nanberry pictured covered in water with a worried expression on his face. I felt intrigued by this cover and wanted to find out the story about this boy.
The back told me that the story was based in Sydney Cove in 1789 about 2 brothers one black one white . I have been to Sydney 3 times and that was one of the reasons I chose the book.
