Also, the novel is useful to teachers and students, who will enjoy reading and sharing, the thirty-two chapters of true stories, about the experiences of a migrant family in rural Hamilton, in western Victoria. Set in the 1950s and up until 1969, it is an honest telling of what can happen to people as they settle into a new country with a different culture and try to learn Aussie English. The stories provoke discussions in class, as well as with friends. Some of the many issues raised include: assimilation, self-identity, racism, intolerance, bullying, sexism, compulsive disorders, cultural misunderstandings and arranged marriages! Altogether there are four EAL/EFL Grammar & Activities books Speak English like Australians!, and for reading purposes each makes some reference to eight consecutive chapters of the novel Speak English like Australians!
