Ned West dreams of sailing across the river on a boat of his very own. A boat means freedom—the fresh open water, squid-rich reefs, fires on private beaches—a far cry from life on Limberlost, the family farm, where his father worries and grieves for Ned's older brothers. They're away fighting in a ruthless and distant war, becoming men on the battlefield, while Ned—too young to enlist—roams the land in search of rabbits to shoot, selling their pelts to fund his secret boat ambitions.

But as the seasons pass and Ned grows up, real life gets in the way. Ned falls for Callie, the tough, capable sister of his best friend, and together they learn the lessons of love, loss, and hardship. When a storm decimates the Limberlost crop and shakes the orchard's future, Ned must decide what to protect: his childhood dreams, or the people and the land that surround him...

Loved the Australian authenticity of this very special book. Characters and situations very delicately written. I’m a new Robbie Arnott fan.

What a magical book
