Product Information
It is 1940, and sixteen-year-old Peter Fullerton and his best friend Tony Cantonelli lie about their age to enlist in the army. Tony also lies about his name-Australia is at war with Italy, and suspicion has been added to the racism he already encounters. Heroes of Tobruk follows these characters from the outbreak of war, through military training and the siege of Tobruk. Meticulously researched, it combines historical detail and factual information about World War II with a very powerful personal story. Maps and photographs add to the sense of realism.

OATHS SWORN . . . loyalties tested . . . forces collide.

Following the colossal battle against the Empire’s warriors on the Burning Plains, Eragon and his dragon, Saphira, have narrowly escaped with their lives. Still there is more at hand for the Rider and his dragon, as Eragon finds himself bound by a tangle of promises he may not be able to keep.

First is Eragon’s oath to his cousin Roran: to help rescue Roran’s beloved, Katrina, from King Galbatorix’s clutches. But Eragon owes his loyalty to others, too. The Varden are in desperate need of his talents and strength—as are the elves and dwarves. When unrest claims the rebels and danger strikes from every corner, Eragon must make choices— choices that take him across the Empire and beyond, choices that may lead to unimagined sacrifice.

Eragon is the greatest hope to rid the land of tyranny. Can this once-simple farm boy unite the rebel forces and defeat the king?

i,m yours

this is my favourite song


Well you done done me and you bet I felt it
I tried to be chill but you're so hot that I melted
I fell right through the cracks
Now I'm trying to get back
Before the cool done run out
I'll be giving it my bestest
And nothing's going to stop me but divine intervention
I reckon it's again my turn to win some or learn some

I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I'm yours

Well open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and damn you're free
Look into your heart and you'll find love love love love
Listen to the music of the moment babay sing with me
I love peace for melody
And It's our God-forsaken right to be loved love loved love loved

So I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait I'm sure
There's no need to complicate
Our time is short
This is our fate, I'm yours

Scooch on over closer dear
And i will nibble your ear

I've been spending way too long checking my tongue in the mirror
And bending over backwards just to try to see it clearer
But my breath fogged up the glass
And so I drew a new face and laughed
I guess what I'm be saying is there ain't no better reason
To rid yourself of vanity and just go with the seasons
It's what we aim to do
Our name is our virtue

But I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait I'm sure

Well open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and damn you're free
Look into your heart and you'll find that the sky is yours
Please don't, please don't, please don't
There's no need to complicate
Cause our time is short
This oh this this is out fate, I'm yours!

book of the month


Old Drumble is a fantastic book by Jack Lasenby about a little boy named Jack Jackman, Andy the drover and Old Drumble, the smartest drover's dog there ever was. A drover, by the way, is a person who shifts cattle and sheep across roads and paths from field to field.

Old Drumble is written in a quirky and different way with funny chapter titles, descriptive wording and interesting questions thought up by Jack that really make you think - e.g. if his street is flat, then which side is the top and which is the bottom? They have equally interesting answers as well.

The book is about the stories that Andy the drover tells Jack about his best droving dog - Old Drumble. About once every week he'd let Jack help him drive the sheep and cattle down Ward Street, and not a step further! - as his mother always said.

That dog had many adventures - he held the whole river up with his bark, he won the Te Aroha races. He even made cattle walk across a tightrope blindfolded.


I give this book a 9/10 because it has some good laugh

my story

Once upon a time, a flour coloured kitten was born, yes a kitten his mother called him Bob. Now Bob had a hard time growing up, first of all he didn’t grow one bit, so he was to a certain extent small, second he had the most ordinary name at his school, most kittens had names like Theresadoor (Theodora) and Fredisdead (Fredrick). They lived in Ingland (England) right beside Sockland (Scotland), Ingland (England) fought Notthatway (Norway).

While this war was on Bob was still training to be a knight, and not growing. One day he hoped that he would be the bravest cat on the battle field and riding the most awesome dog, yes a dog and the dog’s name would be Meg. One day while he was training a girl Border collie walked passed saying, “I want my armour”, and so Bob looked at his watch and said “if I find your armour will you serve me”, “yes I will, and I will only stop if I’m killed or you are victorious!”, “ok it is in the armoire”, “thanks!” and before the dog ran a way he shouted “what is your name?”, “Meg!”

So this is the part where they go to war, kill the bad people and say how good and brave or how they would have lost with out him, bla bla bla bla…………………

He got in the army as a knight he sat on his trusted canine as they swam across the ocean they passed USA, Canada, Alaska and Russia. When they got there they were given cheese they did not eat it because it might be poisoned so they set up camp on a beach, not far away was the rival army assembling point. While he was there a small mouse came out and said “I Prince Jim come in peace I lay my weapons down at my feet (he did not have any weapons) I have come to speak to a young Bob”,
“Yes, that is me”.
“I have come to give you your father’s sword and fight on your side”
“Why” roared Meg.
“I have come to hate the mice and their ways first one of their plans to kill you was to throw poisoned cheese at you that would explode and kill you with happy thoughts”.
Meg gave a snicker “with happy thought, hah! They are stupider than I thought”,
“Deadly: yes. Stupid: no” explained Jim.
“Ok, go to the kennel and get a steed” suggested Bob, as Jim walks off.
Meg whispered to Bob “he’s a spy”
“No he’s not, look how he said I have come to hate the mice”. Any way Jim was not a spy and he was getting a soldier cat to ride, its name was called Mea, she was a black cat, female and laughs her head off at Bob’s war helmet. Well as the mice line up at one side of the battle front the cats and dogs line up at the other and up a hill in a box a cow is commenting and he says “ they are lining up for this battle the best steel swords in their kingdoms, best armour, it is going to be a good fight.”

The king of the Cats Theresadoor gets on his Labrador called Ronan and lines up in front of all his knights, pulls out his special sword and roars out Charge!
As he says that a large rumble starts because all 15,000,200 knights left the ground on their steeds as they tried to get at the mice first to rip them to bits and do as they were taught. We see Bob at the front of the army on the biggest steed Meg and Jim beside on Mea, as they were charging the mice were not going back but running straight for the cats as the clash of steel on steel, rings through the air the screaming cats get knocked of dogs, the mice are still screaming as swords are driven though their hide and friends are killed in front of them and beside mice are dropping all around as the foot soldiers are knocked off. A group of black splodges coming at a high-speed and as they come closer they get bigger and bigger we see what they are, the mice were only decoys, now 40,000 Rats were coming. Rats are the same size as a Japanese sumo wrestler so it looked bleak, but Meg was the same size as a rat so she went right ahead of everyone and attacked, all cats stayed back and looked for Bob to tell him that his canine just ran away, Jim broke the silence by saying” did you just see Bob tell Meg to attack by putting his spurs in to her” and as he said that all the cats charged into the army of rats that Meg and Bob were already in. The same amount of time to get there the rats were a carpet of blood and bodies. When the cat army regrouped they were 200, the rest were dead, as they went back to camp they were all tired and the armour was dented and scratched some were so deep that some fur was showing. As they walked back Bob looked for Jim he saw him crying on a black patch that he recognised was Mea he was crying for happiness that he and Mea did not get killed as Bob came over and said soothingly “come on, we have to get back to camp”, “what me”, “yes you, don’t think we are leaving a soldier behind”, Jim says “me a solder!”

When they got back they went through the streets cats were throwing flowers out of the windows and every one that fought got the Collar of Honor it was a great day.
