Book Review

At the moment I’m reading  'The Drovers Quest" by Susan Brocker. It’s a great read for about twelve to thirteen year olds who are interested in historical books. It is a New Zealand book based in Christchurch and the west coast.

It is mainly about a child whose’ dad went to the west coast on a drive and ended up staying there to become a prospector to find some gold so he and his daughter can live a life they never had.

I got this book at the Milton Public Library.
