| Summary | "Mates at Billabong" by Mary Grant Bruce is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. The story focuses on the life of young Norah Linton, who lives on a cattle station in the Australian bush, navigating the joys and challenges that come with growing up in such a unique environment. As her family dynamics shift with the arrival of her cousin Cecil, the narrative explores themes of friendship, adventure, and the longing for connection. At the start of the book, we are introduced to Norah at the tranquil Billabong homestead, where she spends her days alongside her father, David Linton. The opening reveals the close bond between father and daughter as they share life on the station, full of bush adventures and camaraderie. Norah’s independent spirit is contrasted with the appearance of her cousin Cecil, who arrives with an air of entitlement and a starkly different perspective shaped by city life. As the story unfolds, tensions between the bush upbringing of Norah and Cecil's more polished demeanor hint at future conflicts and developments in their relationships. The lively interaction establishes a foundation for the adventures that await, setting up an engaging exploration of character and the contrasting worlds they inhabit.
