Jackie French - Book Review

One of my favourite Jackie French books is called ‘Flood’.

Flood may look like a little children’s picture book from the cover, but when you start reading this fantastic book you start to realise how devastating the rain can be, how sad that so many families lost their homes, businesses and family members and how hard the people of Queensland worked to save their community.

‘Flood’ is about one of many devastating floods that Queensland endured and how the strength of humankind and the community pulled together to help one another even if they had lost everything.

The story begins with the much needed ‘gentle rain’ falling onto the dry land. The rain suddenly turns savage and is so heavy for such a long period of time that the ground and the rivers can’t hold it all.

Finally the rivers break their banks and the town is flooded with torrents of water. Trees are sucked into the torrents and boats are torn from their jetties. Cables of a boardwalk snapped and a kilometre of wood and metal became a weapon of the flood but a little tugboat saved it from harming the town.

The book explains how the human spirit of the community help each other risking their own lives to save other people and homes.

A wonderful story from devastation to greatness and lots of sadness in between.

What makes this book even more special is that 'all profits raised from the sale of each book went to the Flood Disaster Relief Appeal.

One day when Jake was walking along the beach he found a sewer pipe with light at the end of it. Jake carefully swam through the Green slimy water to the other side. Once he was on the other side, it was a land full of lollipops and rainbows everywhere. Just then Jake found a horse galloping by itself eating lollipops. So Jake jumped on the horses back and flew off into the distance. Once he was back home he told his parents the whole story and what he did for so long. But his parents did not believe him.
