Summary |
"Once again we renew acquaintance with Billabong and with our well-known friends, Norah, Jim and Wally, and even if during the adventurous course of the story we are taken further afield for a time, we are not for long out of touch with the old delightful associations. The only tragedy is that Norah, Jim and Wally have to grow up, but that is always the order of things, and growing up brings with it its own attractions, to say nothing of its own romances. This is the story that all the old lovers of Billabong have been eagerly expecting, and for those who do not as yet know Billabong there remains, happily, the delight of knowing that there are many charming predecessors to this story, and other adventures of Norah, Jim and Wally, to be read." -- Dust jacket |
