  • A Different Dog
    A Different Dog By Paul Jennings May 2017 ISBN 9781760296469 paperback Recommended for readers aged 10-14 years. Summary Paul Jennings’ fans will be familiar with A Different Dog’s protagonist – the troubled young loner – and know that when it comes to creating such characters Jennings is without parallel. The boy in this story can’t speak to others, although he speaks to himself and animals when no one is around. No reason is given but we assume his problem is due to a disability or a reaction to a trauma in his past. Whatever the cause, he is teased mercilessly by other kids. The story opens with the boy setting out to compete in a fun run taking place on a cold, wintery day. Conditions are bleak and when hail sets in they become thoroughly dangerous. As he cautiously makes his way up a winding mountain road the boy is passed by a car with a dog sitting in the front passenger seat. Minutes later he hears the car’s brakes lock and realises that it has plunged over a guard rail to the mountain forest floor far below. Clambering to the wreckage the boy discovers that the driver has been killed and the dog thrown from the vehicle uninjured…but acting very strangely. The boy and dog set out on a perilous journey through difficult terrain and across a rickety old bridge. Along the way they come across a group of cruel teenagers and discover a bond that helps them beat the bullies and find their way home.

  • A Different Land by Paul Jennings
    A Different Land By Paul Jennings September 2019 ISBN 9781760528720 Paperback Recommended for 10-14-year-olds Summary This is another fantastic instalment in Paul Jennings’s Different series. It follows the fortunes of Anton, Christopher and their mother Pat who journeyed to a new land in A Different Boy. The story is told from Christopher’s point of view, as the family adjusts to a new life. When their mother Pat gets a job in a country town, Anton is happy but Christopher finds it hard to settle and wants to go home. Once again, Paul Jennings deftly explores themes of guilt and redemption while telling a compelling story, with humour and emotion. Paul Jennings has built his career on an intimate understanding of reluctant readers and what is required to get them to pick a book up. And his A Different Land is no exception: this story is exciting and surprising, whimsical and gritty. Furthermore, its short sentences and simple but evocative vocabulary and imagery will enthral readers until the book’s end. The story is loosely based on Paul’s journey to Australia as a ‘ten-pound Pom’ but, like A Different Dog and A Different Boy, the world of the story – and what is possible in it – has a timeless reality of its own. Use in the curriculum This short but powerfully written novel is appropriate for Grade 4 to Year 8 classrooms, depending on the way it is treated. Language Text features of note are: • chapter opening illustrations and hand drawn font for first words of each chapter; • well-spaced text for readability (consider the audience); Teachers’ Tips • action sequences written in short sentences and simple past tense with well-chosen verbs, adverbs and adjectives.

Davies, Dean Honors College iii Abstract The Victorian era was arguably the most productive time for the Gothic genre. Laden with supernatural experiences and insanity around every corner, the Gothic created a distinct genre of eeriness and morbidity. The key to understanding the genre’s development lies in the culture that caused it to thrive. Victorian culture saw the emergence of supernatural experimentation, particularly in the Spiritualist movement, as well as the further development of psychology.
