AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Sair has moved to a small town in Thailand where her mother has a job. Things are so different there. Sair misses her best friend, Miranda. She misses Australia. Then she meets Sukanya. They don't speak each other's language so they have to somehow create their own. It isn't English and it isn't Thai. It is special talk. It is a special friendship' (Source: author's website).
