Sitting On The Fence

Hi, I'm Courtney and I am one of the Ranzau book team. The book I read is all about the Springboks tour in 1981. Its a diary of Martin Daly and his life back then.  His rugby mad dad was fighting with his sister who wanted to stop the tour from happening.
Martin just wishes that the whole thing would just go away.
"Your a fence sitter like a dumb bunny" his sister told him. But when he joins a new school he makes new friends...
I hope you enjoy this good book.

Sounds like a really interesting book! I remember being young when the tour was on and a lot of people being opposed to it. It was an issue that divided a lot on New Zealanders. What do you think? Should the tour have gone a head?
