Description

Bert and Frank are two brothers who have been separated by circumstance. Orphaned and determined to stay together, they face tragedy when they are sent to serve as cheap labour in the British colonies, with Bert going to Australia and Frank to New Zealand.

Years later, as the Great War breaks out in Europe, the ANZAC soldiers who have been fighting at Gallipoli begin to return home. For Bert and Frank, this may be their chance to find each other again.

This is a gripping historical tale based on a tragic episode of World War One, suitable for struggling, reluctant and dyslexic readers aged 9+.
