" Storm Boy by Colin Thiele is a classic Australian children's novel first published in 1964. The story follows a young boy, known as Storm Boy, who lives with his father, Hideaway Tom, in the remote Coorong region of South Australia.

One day, Storm Boy rescues and raises three orphaned pelican chicks, but only one survives—he names it Mr. Percival. The boy and the pelican form a deep bond, and Mr. Percival becomes his loyal companion. As Storm Boy grows, he learns about the beauty and harshness of nature, the importance of friendship, and the inevitability of change.

The novel explores themes of love, loss, and the relationship between humans and nature. It is a poignant and beautifully written tale that has been adapted into films and a stage play."
