Caught in Willaburra

A girl without a memory. A life that isn't hers. A mistake she must set right--before it's too late.

When Kate wakes in a sterile hospital ward with no memory, she's thrust into a surreal journey through time. Emerging in the body of a fourteen-year-old orphan in early 1900s rural Australia, she must adapt quickly to a world of slate pencils, schoolhouse chores, and strict punishments. Her name is now Kate Cavanagh, and her mission--though she barely understands it--is to find and correct a mistake that threatens her very existence.

Navigating gruff guardians, cranky teachers, and curious classmates, Kate must draw on courage she never knew she had. But can she discover the truth before she's trapped in the past forever?

For readers aged 11 to 15 who love time-slip fiction, coming-of-age journeys, and immersive historical settings, Caught in Willaburra is an unforgettable tale of identity, growth, and second chances.
