The Storm Boy Gift set is being released to tie in with the 55th anniversary edition of the Australian classic novella and the remake of the movie, which will star Jai Courtney and Geoffrey Rush.
Storm Boy is the timeless story of Mike "Storm Boy" Kingley who rescues three pelican chicks after their mother is shot. One of the birds, Mr Percival, forms a very special bond with the boy which brings into focus the conflict between his lifestyle in the remote Coorong of South Australia and the external pressures of society including his schooling.
