The Child is Wise is a rich collection of childhood memories from a diverse range of Australians with very different stories to tell some happy and some unhappy. From the well known, such as Dorothy Hewitt and Vincent Serventy, to the previously unknown, each story draws on real life experiences and vividly evokes the childhoods of yesteryear. By turns funny, sad and poignant, The Child is Wise is a salute to childhood and the wisdom of the child. 349 p. : ports. : 22 cm. #090322
