A
few weeks ago, at his school's Christmas fair, Wolfie bought me his
very first Christmas present. There was a section with gifts for daddies
and mummies, where a teacher would help children choose something they
would then wrap. So Wolfie got me this book: True History of the Kelly Gang by Peter Carey.
I know nothing of the Kelly Gang, but just by the cover I can tell it
is going to be a great read, the kind of stuff I would have bought for
myself had I seen it in a bookshop or a thrift sales. I am amazed at how well my son knows me: just a look at the cover and he knew that was a good gift for daddy. Of course this is the best Christmas
present this year, bare none.
