In his pert, lively, observant and sometimes lyrical style, Watkin records the bleakness and strangeness that faced the pioneer newcomers. * Naomi Lewis in TES *
A great book for anyone who has an urge to be an explorer * Financial Times *
The journal opens with a sustained passage of suspense generated by the excitement of arrival in a strange land and never lacks that kind of interest to the end. Based on fact, it reads like the best fiction ... * The Junior Bookshelf *
Emphatically written ... we experience the raw hardships and extreme difficulties affecting the horrifyingly interwoven lives of rats and men. A good read ... * Books for Keeps *
This clever spoof history certainly deserves to be included among the host of celebratory books on early Australian history. * Growing Point *
