Age range 6+Its December 1914, and young Will Hutchison heads off into the South Australian desert in search of gold with his father, two other explorers and six camels. Their expedition doesnt go according to plan, and finding water becomes their prime concern.

Hardback. 1st Edition. Quarto Size [approx 24cm x 30.5cm]. Near fine condition in pictorial laminated boards. A lovely copy. Illustrated in colour. Unpaginated. Based on an Indonesian folk tale from the 14th century. The story of Rangda, a powerful witch. She curses the whole kingdom when no one will marry her daughter because no-one wants a witch as a mother-in-law! The king tries to fight fire with fire, but soon realises that only wisdom can defeat the witchâs terrible power. Illustrated with stunning watercolour paintings by Indonesian artist Dadang Christanto, whose artwork features in the National Gallery of Australia, this is a stirring story which, like all good traditional tales, takes the reader to another land and another time. And, of course, it has a happy ending. (Author).
