Description:
A magical story of friendship forged over distance between two children, from very different worlds, who share a common experience of loss and a passion for a life where dreams can come true.




Moonie lives in Melbourne and dreams of designing dresses for movie stars. Eight thousand kilometres away, on Chongming Island in China, peasant boy Little Dipper cares for the silkworms on his family's farm and hopes to learn English.


On the day Moonie's beloved Ma Mi goes away, Little Dipper appears in her house. Before they can speak, he is whisked back home. Aided by a magical silk cocoon, Little Dipper's visits become a regular event and although neither knows how or why they are connected their bond grows each time.


Will the silken threads of friendship be enough to help Moonie bring Ma Mi home, or to save Little Dipper from the troublesome ghosts who stand between him and his dream of learning English?

From one of Australia's most esteemed and award-winning children's authors and Australian Children's Laureate for 2022-23 comes a magical story of kindness, courage and friendship's power to make dreams come true.



Praise for The Silken Thread

'The Silken Thread is a beautifully evocative sunshine burst of magical realism, illuminating the harsh and joyous realities of life in China and

Good shower liner
Size: 72"W x 72"L (Pack of 1), Color: 1a. Clear
Actually works! No soap scum or mildew. I have had this shower curtain up since December and all I do is rinse it off. No soap scum. Good item. Good value.

Too lightweight and flimsy, but it does the job
Size: 72"W x 72"L (Pack of 1), Color: 1a. Clear
This shower liner works as expected, but it is a bit lightweight, and will drift around in the shower. I will look at getting a more heavy duty one in the future. This one has the 3 magnets, and that isn't enough. I would recommend getting one with double the magnets and a thicker plastic. I went cheap and regret it slightly, but at least these things are made to be disposable. Other than that, the durability seems good, and it looks and feels like you would expect, but as stated, the plastic is flimsy and flutters around. Seems fairly mold resistant vs other liners I've used from the store (like cheaper Walmart ones etc).

Keeps clothes on!
Color: Black, Size: Pack of 30
These hangers are fantastic! They save so much closet space, keep clothes from slipping, and feel sturdy and durable. Great quality for the price and make the closet look neat and organized!

Had to order more!
Color: Ivory/Rose Gold, Size: Pack of 50, Color: Ivory/Rose Gold, Size: Pack of 50
Such great hangers that save space and provide true non-slipping of clothing. They came in handy as I got rid of ye old plastic hangers. My closet looks so much more organized and a little bit more spacious. They are lightweight and hold up very well. I did notice some hangers had "peeling" to them but I honestly didn't care since they are doing the work they are intended for. These are pretty versatile as I even have winter jackes hanging from them. The price is aslo very good in my opinion and on par with one of the big box companies my mom got hers from, but I like the fact that these come in various colors and finishes. The quantity options are also a blessing as I needed more than I initially opted for. Needless to say I liked them so much I had to order more. I also loved how well and neatly packed they came. 10/10 recommend!
