Disney's Hercules (Cathy East Dubowski)

Disney's Hercules

Cathy East Dubowski

Blurb: A hero of truly epic proportions.

Young Hercules knew he didn't fit in with the other kids his age, who called him Jerk-ules. But he had no idea he was the son of the all-powerful god Zeus. When he was born, Pain and Panic, Hades not-so-bright helpers, transformed Hercules into a mortal instead of actually killing him.

Once Hercules uncovers his past, he is on a quest to become a hero, thus immortal. But Hades has other plans for the Wonder Boy. As Herc proves himself stronger than anything Hades can throw at him, he finally realises that a true hero is not measures by the size of his strength but the strength of his heart.

Based on the Walt Disney Pictures movie, this heroic and humorous novel contains eight pages of full-colour still from the animated film.

Through My Eyes - The Autobiography of Lindy Chamberlain-Creighton (Lindy Chamberlain-Creighton)

Through My Eyes - The Autobiography of Lindy Chamberlain-Creighton

Lindy Chamberlain-Creighton

Blurb: 'This is the story of a little girl who lived, and breathed, and loved, and was loved. She was part of me. She grew within my body and when she died, part of me died, and nothing will ever alter that fact. This is her story, and mind.' - Lindy Chamberlain-Creighton

'Page after page demolishes the myth and fables that have been spun around a nation's obsession with the baby's disappearance.' - The Sydney Morning Herald

'What first struck me on meeting Lindy was her sense of humour and surprising lack of bitterness. Here is a woman who has been under such macabre and intense public scrutiny and yet through all the tabloid hysteria they haven't managed to capture the real Lindy at all. There are so many myths about Lindy and the Chamberlain case that have still not been dispelled and to read this book is to get closer to the truth behind the story that has continued to fascinate Australia for the past 24 years.' - Miranda Otto, Actress
