The Aussie from Down Under, Margot Finke, has done it again!
Down Under Calling is a beautifully crafted story of bridging the generation gap
and ocean separation through good old-fashioned letter writing and sharing
stories of one’s youth.
At the request of his mother, Andy Frazer is reluctant in
having to write a letter to his Australian Grandma Rose. It was bad enough his
family was forced to move from their spacious home to a cramped apartment.
Something about downsizing at his father’s job led to this. Along with not
being allowed to purchase any more video games he now had to write a letter to
some old lady he doesn’t even remember. What could he possibly write about?
What starts out as a burden quickly turns into a true labor
of love. The letter writing becomes a glorious distraction that serves as the
propeller of an exploding imagination and curiosity. What Andy learns along the
way is invaluable. Journey along with Andy, Grandma Rose, and Andy’s closest
friend Kelly as their lives become intertwined despite the separation of an
ocean.
The humorous letter exchanges will have the reader turning
the pages as quick as lightening. Author, Margot Finke includes a glossary of
Australian words for easy reference. Visit Finke at www.margotfinke.com to learn about her
ever-evolving writing career. Be prepared to spend quite a bit of time
visiting, for Margot’s expertise and humor spill from the pages.
