The Amoora Trilogy (Anne's Holiday, Return to Amoora and Summer's End) follow Anne's adventures on her holidays in Amoora - from when she first arrives as a 10-year-old, to when she returns as a maturing 15-year-old and then again as a headstrong young woman of 19. Forming a special friendship with John, the local boat-owner's son, Anne learns to surf and fish, plays a part in solving a local mystery and experiences frightening bushfires and storms. But more importantly, Anne confronts the challenges of growing up - including her new feelings for her old friend, John.
