Book excerpt: Java, Indonesia. Fourteenth century. The villagers are fearful of Mbah Merapi, the rumbling volcano that overshadows their lives. Kancil, the lowliest kitchen servant, knows the real danger is human. But she is fatherless and mute – and will lose everything if her identity is revealed. How can Kancil warn the villagers of the danger they are in? How can you save someone when you’re not sure who you are? This is the question Australian author Deryn Mansell asks in her debut novel Tiger Stone. Young readers will be gripped by this historical junior fiction fantasy and its story of identity, difference and acceptance. For more on the author and this book, visit www.derynmansell.com
