Anne Pender explores the lives and creative work of seven extraordinary performers who have brought joy and hilarity to generations of Australians through their memorable characters on stage and television, and in their potent satire, musical comedy, revue, drama, stand-up acts and one-person shows. In Seven Big Australians, Pender interprets the lives of these significant comic actors, offering vivid biographical portraits of their childhood and family of origin, their struggles to enter the entertainment industry and the art they created over many decades. Drawing on extensive interviews conducted with each actor over many years, Pender documents their experiences of the hardships of breaking into the industry and the challenges of staying there, the gruelling nature of daily life as a performer, the demands of working in multiple forms, the realities of script writing under pressure and the exhilaration of performing. These actors are significant cultural figures whose lives are awe-inspiring, momentous and magical. Carol Raye, Barry Humphries, Noeline Brown, Max Gillies, John Clarke, Tony Sheldon and Denise Scott pioneered home-grown humour, transformed the image of Australia, intervened in political life, and brought Australian comedy to the world. They created iconic figures, including Mavis Bramston, Dame Edna Everage, Clarke and Dawe, Bernadette in Priscilla Queen of the Desert and mesmerising impersonations of prime ministers.

Seven Little Australians is a children's adventure story by Ethel Turner, considered one of the greatest classics of Australian literature. Published in 1894, this story depicts seven youngsters as they grow up in late 19th century Australia, in and around the Sydney area. Turner aptly portrays her characters as ordinary, mischievous children with a austere but well-meaning father who is a Captain of the armed forces. The Captain's struggle to express his emotions is a running theme of the novel; the stereotypical male of the time being encouraged to maintain a strong, generally silent demeanor. The children's young stepmother fails to apply discipline: noting her inability to bring order, the children create havoc. However, in freely getting up to mischief the youngsters encounter adventure after adventure in their locality. Ranging in age from four to sixteen, they grapple with many aspects of growing up, Meg - the eldest girl - for instance experiences an early romance, while the younger kids frequently play pranks. Authentically depicting rural and urban Australia as it was during the nation's infancy, this novel is unusual for coming-of-age stories in that it makes no attempt at overt moralizing. Nevertheless the perils of the world, and the potential for calamity even in a life defined by peace and discovery, are ever-present. Having received multiple adaptations for television, radio and the big screen, Seven Little Australians has long cemented its status as a fictional classic.

The rules and regulations of stern Captain Woolcot are no match for his seven little Australians. Led by spirited Judy, they run wild at their rambling riverside home - until a tragedy strikes that will change their lives forever. Step inside and meet them all - dreamy Meg, and forthright Pip, daring Judy, naughty Bunty, gentle Nell, and cheeky Baby, and the youngest, 'the General'. Their triumphs and tears will stay with you always.
