destiny, as the bringer of turmoil and change to her people, Dragonkind,
who have been under the oppressive rule of the Meer for a hundred
years. But the burden of this destiny feels too heavy. The dragon
demands she help him find long lost kin in the frozen northern kingdom
of Shagrath, a place of unknown dangers. And for what? What is this
dragon, Ballickh Ry, to her? And yet the thrill of a new challenge, far
away from her home and all its responsibilities is appealing. Sye is
torn between duty, her love of two brothers, and her destiny. The only
option is to run away from it all.

Sir Donald Bradman
ISBN 978-0987483218
Don Bradman was an awesome sportsman who taught himself to play cricket by hitting a cricket ball with a stump off his family's water tank. He went on to shatter world records. His batting average still stands - 99.94.
This book is great for school projects or if you simply want a good read about this amazing, inspiring man, who stood only 170 cm tall but was the youngest player to score a test century. In his first season of international cricket he scored 2,960 runs with a batting average of 98.66. It was this brilliance which led to the invention of the dangerous 'Bodyline' method, by the English team, just to combat Bradman's skill.

-I still haven't practised colouring as well as you
-I'm not even up to the monster pages!
It's not written by Yulia it is written from me, Lia
