Aber zu der Sklavenmutter kommt der Neujahrstag mit seltsamen Leiden. Sie sitzt auf ihrem kalten Kabinenboden und beobachtet die Kinder, die am nächsten Morgen alle von ihr gerissen werden können; und oft wünscht sie sich, dass sie und sie sterben könnten, bevor der Tag dämmert.

Although I could read before I went to school, and I won the school reading prize at five years old, my early children's stories came from the radio and watching films at a cinema on Saturday mornings in Australia. It wasn't until I was nine years old on a ship returning from Australia that I was introduced to children's books.
