What an inspirational read.
I couldn't stop listening to this book. What a strong woman.
I loved it hearing about the Australian out back and the grit it took to survive

Interesting and heartwarming story
I like the information in this book - the stories of the geologist who found the diamonds, the stories of the Berlin wall, agriculture on the Ord River and of creating new businesses. It is a fitting tribute to the people who developed the Ord Valley and supply produce from it, to the people who share Kununurra with the influx of tourists each year and then maintain their lives through the wet season without them. It is a well told story and a pleasure to listen to via audiobook. Thank You for sharing the story and allowing us to be touched and inspired by a remarkably interesting life.

Excellent
A great story of family, loss, resilience & tenacity. What an amazing lady who saw an opportunity and made it happen turning herself from housewife to successful business woman who gave back to her community while keeping her family as her main priority.

Admiration for an Amazing Author
The book, recommended to me by a resident of Kununurra, was not a book I would have chosen from the bookstore But heartfelt and grateful thanks go to June who knows me better than I know myself when it comes to books.
I have enjoyed every word I wept with saddens and with happiness as Frauke interwove the threads of her life.
It is a story that evokes great emotion, to the point of feeling the heat, being able to see the red dust and to feel the fear of the wildlife; (that brown snake coiled around the cars bowl-ugh!- ).
A truly amazing woman, who has a way with words which makes this book a MUST read.
Thank you for sharing Frauke, and thank you for not giving up on WA
May God continue to bless you and your family.

Thank you Frauke
Thank you Frauke for sharing your incredibly Inspiring story with us.
It’s honestly one of my very favourite books.
I laughed and cried like I rarely do with books.
It’s left me with a ‘can do’ attitude, that nothing is too big to overcome with God.

A story of resilience and triumph
Such a beautiful story. I'm fortunate enough to have called Kununurra home for the last 18 months, I am leaving at the end of the year but this book made me miss it already. Everyone needs to put this place on their bucket list. Thank you Frauke for sharing your story!

Inspiring, heart breaking, brave!
Loved this story. What a brave, inspirational lady Frauke is. Her love for her family & the warmth she has extended to her community are truly remarkable. Beautifully told, this story makes you laugh & cry & confront serious issues (depression, suicide) The way in which this lady has learned to live & love through it all & manage to build a hugely successful business is positively brilliant. Thank you Frauke for sharing your life & wisdom.
