- Summary:
-
It amazed me that they would imagine I would never walk again. I knew what I was going to do. I was going to break in wild horses and yell 'Ho! Ho!' and wave my hat in the air, and I was going to write a book like The Coral Island. As a boy, Alan Marshall had big dreams - but he also had polio. This is the true story of his struggles and triumphs; of bushmen, horses and crutches, and the places we can go if we have the courage. Every so often, there comes a story so brilliant and lively and moving that it cannot be left in the past. Rediscover the magic of our country's most memorable children's books in the Penguin Australia Chlidren's Classics series of stories too precious to leave behind.
