COME BY CHANCE
By Madeleine Winch
A warm and gentle story about friendship and the joy to be found in providing shelter and hospitality to those in need.
Out walking far away from anywhere, Bertha comes across a little abandoned house. She sets about repairing the rundown cottage and settles into her new cosy home. There she lives, all alone, until one wet and wintry night animals come from far and wide to take refuge in her shelter. She cannot refuse anyone, and soon her home is full of life. But what will happen in the spring?
- Reissue of a classic Australian children s book about compassion, hospitality and friendship.
- Part of the 'Walker Classics' series of classic Australian and New Zealand picture books.
