The team chat with Jennifer Bradley, author of 'The Girl With Wings'.
Girl with Wings is the story of Jessica Mackay, who lives on the family farm at Narromine, near Dubbo. The year is 1929, and her father, who was wounded during the famous charge of the Light Horse at Beersheba, thinks that his nine-year-old daughter has a perfectly sensible ambition. Slightly to her surprise, he takes her seriously, and makes a number of practical suggestions, not all of them welcome and some of them surprising. "You should keep up your horse riding. That will help you with the 'seat and hands' that flyers need."
