Lillipilly Hill

'One day I'm going to climb those trees,' said Harriet. 'And I'm going to fish in the creek, and explore in the bush, and talk to all those people down there. I never knew there were so many lovely things to do. I'm not going to call London "home" any more.'

Harriet Wilmot and her family arrive in the small town of Barley Creek to find bush life unrefined and unsuitable. But Harriet is intrigued by the rough-and-ready ways of the local kids and by the sense of danger lurking in the surrounding bush. And she takes bold and adventurous steps to find her place in her exciting new home.

Lillipilly Hill is a delightful story of a young girl's awakening to a new life in rural Australia in the late nineteenth century. With an introduction by Ursula Dubosarsky.
