Hurtling towards the beach one morning in the famous Bondi Rattler , Keiran is inspired to become a paper boy on the Bondi trams. No sooner does his dream begin to take shape than it is threatened by Saxon, the chief paper boy. Tensions build as their rivalry grows and culminates in a dramatic climax with unexpected results. Can dreams really come true? Keiran s quest is to find out. (Publisher's blurb) - Information extracted from AustLit: http://www.austlit.edu.au | |||||
