This book is a pair of late 19th-century children’s stories set in Australia. The first, A Little Australian Girl or The Babes in the Bush, tells the story of two young siblings who become lost in the bush and must survive its dangers with the help of an Aboriginal tracker. The second story, Jim: A Little N..., follows a young Black boy who travels with a minstrel troupe from London to Australia, where he befriends a girl and her mother. The story takes a tragic turn and reflects the attitudes and language of its time, offering insight into colonial and racial perspectives of the period.
