Re: [LM_NET] Target: Middle grades books on Australia/Aborigines

[Dona the Librarian <librarian@VIC.CHARIOT.NET.AU>]

Jackie French books are fantastic!  She has many historical fiction books
about different cultures/time periods. http://www.jackiefrench.com/

There is a good series called My Story. They are written by different
authors and cover different aspects of Australian history. They are written
in a journal form, and seen through the eyes of child.

Hope this helps.
