Title: Seven Little Australians
Author: Ethel Turner
Genre: YA, Classics
Rating: 7/10
# pages: Audiobook
Date read: April, 2007
Summary: This is the story of seven incorrigible children living near Sydney in the 1880's with their military-man father, and a stepmother who is scarcely older than the oldest child of the family. A favourite amongst generations of children for over a century, this story tells of the cheeky exploits of Meg, Pip, Judy, Bunty, Nell, Baby, and The General (who is the real baby of the family), as well as providing a fascinating insight into Australian family life in a bygone era. (From LibriVox.org)
Review: A classics in the style of L.M. Alcot and Frances Hodgeson Burnett. A charming tale of 7 mischevious kids and all the scrapes they get up to. Because of the ending I can't quite classify it as a 'comfort book', but I still enjoyed it greatly.
