CHILDREN’S BOOK COUNCIL OF AUSTRALIA HONOUR BOOK
Jim stared across the paddock as his best mate galloped towards him.
‘Have you heard the news?’ yelled Charlie. ‘Britain has declared war on Germany. The army is recruiting. This is our chance to see the world. The war will be over in a few months and we’ll miss the fun if we wait.’
In 1914 Jim and Charlie abandon the Australian outback for the excitement and adventure of the war to end all wars. But in the Light Horse they quickly discover the brutal realities of life on the frontline. Nothing will ever be the same again.
