Two Mates is the true story of the special mateship between two young boys who have grown up together in the coastal town of Broome in Australia's north-west. Jack is Indigenous and Raf is a non- Indigenous boy who has spina bifida. Jack and Raf take the reader on a journey of their daily life growing up in Broome. Together they search for hermit crabs, go hunting for barni, fish for salmon, explore the markets, eat satays and dress up as superheros. The fact that Raf is in a wheelchair is only revealed at the end of the story.

I selected this book as the Christmas Book for my 9 year old Grandson. I found it a great book with wonderful illustrations. I asked if he can guess the special untold story of this book too. So I am waiting for him to return from holidays to find out. I did tell his mum what I was talking about so she could ask when he finishes reading it, and explain what I mean if he can't work out my special untold story behind the book. This was a excellent book, especially for boys I think.
