The year the maps changed / Danielle Binks. - Sydney : Lothian, 2020. - 310 pages : map ; 20 cm.
Fred's family is a mess. Fred's mother died when she was six and she's been raised by her Pop and adoptive father, Luca, ever since. But now Pop is at the Rye Rehabilitation Centre recovering from a fall; Luca's girlfriend, Anika, has moved in; and Fred's just found out that Anika and Luca are having a baby of their own. More and more it feels like a land-grab for family and Fred is the one being left off the map. But even as the world feels like it's spinning out of control, a crisis from the other side of it comes crashing in. When four hundred Kosovar-Albanian refugees arrive in the middle of the night to be housed at one of Australia's 'safe havens' on an isolated headland not far from home, their fate becomes intertwined with the lives of Fred and her family, as she navigates one extraordinary year that will change them all.
9-12 years.
