内容简介 Stranded in the Australian outback, Mary and her younger brother Peter are the only survivors of an aircrash. Facing death from exhaustion and starvation they are befriended by an Aboriginal boy who helps them to survive and guides them on their journey. Walkabout is a haunting children's classic which looks at survival and the clash of cultures.
媒体推荐 A re-issue of James Vance Marshall's "minor classic" - this small book which appeared on another list in 1961 and tells of two young castaways in the desolate Australian Northern Territory. Although he has replicated this experience in later works, they have never achieved the concentrated effectiveness of this one. No illustrations (remembering the original, a good thing) and synchronized with motion picture appearance. (Kirkus Reviews)
