In his book The Coconut Kid David Mills tells some of his stories. David was born in 1941 in Cranbrook, WA. At the age of four months he was taken from his family and spent the next 8 years at Parkerville Children's Home not even aware that he had older siblings.

He started his schooling there but at the age of 8 was returned to his family where his education continued.

He began his working life at the tender age of 13 and worked, mostly as a shearer, in a number of areas of Australia. David's stories are informative, funny and gut wrenching.

Especially as he tells of his wife's illness and last days. He is frank about his life and its bad patches. However, you can't but admire the man he has become, despite all he has experienced.
