A Little Bush Maid - Hardcover

by Mary Grant Bruce (Author)

A Little Bush Maid is a classic children's book written by Mary Grant Bruce. It 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 girl who loves nothing more than exploring the wild and beautiful landscape around her home.When Norah's father is injured, she must take on more responsibility on the farm and help her family make ends meet. Along the way, she makes new friends and learns important lessons about hard work, determination, and the importance of family.The book is beautifully written and captures the essence of life in the Australian bush in the early 20th century. It is a heartwarming tale that will appeal to both children and adults, and is sure to become a treasured addition to any bookshelf.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.
