Description:
One day, Dougie's dad tells him about his grandfather's gift for water divining, or witching. Dougie wishes he were a water witcher - then they would have a well of their own, always full of water. So Dougie teaches himself the art of water divining and, despite his sisters' teasing and his mother's skepticism, he discovers a night soak of fresh water.
Water Witcher brings to life the experience of a family in drought-stricken rural Australia during the Depression era.
Seen through the eyes of Dougie, the optimism of childhood shines through, despite the tough work and harsh conditions. Jan Ormerod's stunning, evocative illustrations make this a rich and resonating book.
