Rate this book
A collection of stories about a very special friendship: between an Aboriginal girl called Edie, and a non-Aboriginal girl, Maggie. Edie lives with her grandmother, though she has been taught to call her 'Auntie Gwen'. There is no bitterness in Edie when she talks about her mother having left her: just matter of fact 'Mum couldn't cope'. We're obliquely aware of the stolen generation and of a world that is important to adults, but through the eyes of children we share an immediate need to enjoy and cherish our friends
