A Little Bush Maid (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781162649214)

A Little Bush Maid by Mary Grant Bruce is a classic Australian children's book that tells the story of Norah Linton, a young girl who lives on a farm in the Australian bush with her family. Norah is a spirited and adventurous child who loves nothing more than exploring the bush and spending time with her animal friends.The book follows Norah as she goes on a series of exciting adventures, including rescuing a baby kangaroo, helping to catch a bushfire, and even tracking down a dangerous criminal. Along the way, Norah learns valuable lessons about bravery, friendship, and the importance of taking care of the land and animals around her.Written in 1910, A Little Bush Maid offers readers a glimpse into life in rural Australia at the turn of the 20th century. It is a heartwarming and engaging tale that is sure to capture the imagination of young readers, as well as adults who are looking for a nostalgic trip down memory lane.A yell from Wally intimated that he had something on his hook, and with immense pride he flourished in the air a diminutive blackfish--so small that the Hermit proposed to use it for bait, a suggestion promptly declined by the captor, who hid his catch securely in the fork of two branches, before re-baiting his hook. Then Harry pulled out a fine perch, and immediately afterwards Norah caught a blackfish; and after that the fun waxed fast and furious, the fish biting splendidly, and all hands being kept busy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
