Younger Readers: 'August and Jones' by Pip Harry
Eleven-year-old Jones Kirby has just moved to Sydney from her farm in country New South Wales and can't get used to her family's tiny city apartment. She's also worried that her vision is blurry -- she lost her eye to cancer as a toddler. Could it be another tumour?
Enrolling at her new school, Jones meets shy, awkward August Genting. The pair soon become close friends and hatch a brilliant plan: the August and Jones Must-See Bucket List.
