The Amazing Flight of Daisy is an imaginative and lyrical children´s book. It features a girl´s rebellious kite that is hijacked by the wind. Together, they circle the world, describing everything they see from a unique perspective: the skies above. Educational and adventurous, this modern-day fable mixes the realism of world travel with a message about our stressed environment. In addition, the book telegraphs the idea that girls can grow up to do anything well. Fiona, a girl living on a Maine island, is given a kite that she names Daisy. When the Wind steals Daisy away, a fantastic adventure begins as they circle the world, encountering a storm at sea on the QE2, the mysterious Northern Lights, the Paris catacombs, and remote tribes from Tibet to Bali. There is a daring ride with Fiona over Africa in a vintage Tiger Moth biplane, and a surprise ending. This book is available through retailers including Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Borders.

Daisy May Bates, CBE (born Margaret Dwyer; 16 October 1859 - 18 April 1951) was an Irish-Australian journalist, welfare worker and lifelong student of Australian Aboriginal culture and society. She was known among the native people as "Kabbarli" (a kin term found in a number of Australian languages which means "grandmother" or "granddaughter"). Daisy Bates conducted fieldwork amongst several Indigenous nations in western and southern Australia. She supported herself largely by writing articles for urban newspapers on such topics as 'native cannibalism' and the 'doomed' fate of Indigenous peoples. Bates also published her work on Indigenous kinship systems, marriage laws, language and religion in books and articles. She was appointed a Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE) for Aboriginal welfare work in 1934. (wikipedia.org)

This extraordinary story of courage and faith is based on the actual experiences of three girls who fled from the repressive life of Moore River Native Settlement, following along the rabbit-proof fence back to their homelands. Assimilationist policy dictated that these girls be taken from their kin and their homes in order to be made white. Settlement life was unbearable with its chains and padlocks, barred windows, hard cold beds, and horrible food. Solitary confinement was doled out as regular punishment. The girls were not even allowed to speak their language. Of all the journeys made since white people set foot on Australian soil, the journey made by these girls born of Aboriginal mothers and white fathers speaks something to everyone.

In a sprawling chronicle of civilization through Irish eyes, Akenson takes us from St Patrick to Woodie Guthrie, from Constantine to John F. Kennedy, from India to the Australian outback. In two volumes of masterful storytelling he creates ironic, playful, and acerbic historical miniatures - a quixotic series of reconstructions woven into a helix in which the same historical figures reappear in radically different contexts as their narratives intersect with the larger picture.
