THE SUGAR GLIDER

THE SUGAR GLIDER At the beginning the relation between Don and Silvia was very cold.

Don and Sylvia had been divorced for a year perhaps because Don had been flying too much time and he had left his family for his job.

At first Don think s that a year is long enough to forget and he returns to Australia after a year of jobs flying around the islands of the Pacific. But his ex-wife has another person in her life: Patrick, a rich man with a dark secret.

Don hopes he can see more of Sylvia because he still loves her but she has always hated that his passion of flying comes before his family.

During the hi story Don and Sylvia will think about their feelings and finally they will try to have another chance.

I think that this couple won’t have a future because Don loves flying and he will never give up flying.

My favourite character in the book is Joe, a good-looking, brownskinned Murri Boy. He is a young man that Judy meets in the mine of Warrangi. He is very brave; he fights for his rights land and for his people. He understands how important land is for him and other Murri families. Also he helps Judy and Don and puts his life in danger for them.

I think that Judy is very brave and clever. She is only fourteen but she solves a lot of very difficult situations: she tames the brumbies, runs to look for help, and cheats the bad men. Besides, she has got her own ideas, for example about the Murris and his rights….

Judy is the most important character in this hi story, her audacity and courage save the life of his father and also she prevents the foreign government from getting the uranium.
