Where lions roar at night : the fun and adventures of a 'pioneering' New Zealand family / Rosie Boom.

Ten-year-old Milly had always dreamed of living in the country and owning all sorts of animals. So when her parents buy a piece of land and move their six children into a ninety-year-old barn, Milly can't believe her luck. But she never imagined that living the simple life would include mucking out a filthy water tank, gathering endless supplies of firewood, clearing the land, and rescuing animals in a 'hundred year' storm. Based on the true story of the family's move to the country and written through the eyes of their daugher Milly.
