A moving story which became a magical film, 'Storm Boy' is one of the classics of Australian writing for children. With anticipation of the new film coming out next year this classic edition has new illustrations and is now in a hardback gift edition. Storm Boy saves the life of Mr Percival, and in return the pelican helps Storm Boy's father with his fishing and joins in the rescue of a shipwrecked crew. The boy and the pelican prove friends to the end.
