As a die-hard Hawks supporter for over 50 years, who remembers the first time I saw Jarryd Roughead play in 2005, I was always going to enjoy this book. As we hear in his own words about his childhood, family, AFL career and beyond, we get an insight into Roughead as a person, from his own perspective and also from some key people in his life who wrote chapters for the book.

The happiest refugee is the story of Anh Do and how his family was forced into fleeing their country of origin and setting their sites for Australia. It goes through the challenges faced when making their way through multiculturalism and racism along with what difficulties came with war torn migration. This is a very insightful book which takes you through and places you in a different mindset of how people come to be with their own story of greatness.

His journey to Australia took him from tragedy to comedy.

As a young boy, Anh Do escaped war-torn Vietnam aboard an overcrowded fishing boat.

He has since built an impressive career in entertainment.

Now a fixture on the national stand-up scene and TV screens, two years ago he surprised the judges at Australia's most well-known art competition with an intense portrait of his once-estranged father.

The comedian's artistic streak - on show in a new TV series - earned him a finalist place in the Archibald Prize.

"It was great to visit the Art Gallery of News South Wales with this huge eight foot painting of him up on the wall," Do said.

"My father fought alongside Aussie and US soldiers in the Vietnam War.

"In the aftermath of the war my father lost three brothers and his own dad so he drank a lot. When I was 13 years old my father left the family and I didn't see him for nine years."

His mother worked tirelessly to single-handedly raised three children who all went on to attend university.

Do harboured an interest in art but studied law because he was determined to buy his mother a house.

After completing his studies, he was about to sign up for a 60-hour a week corporate job. But he turned down a job offer figuring that he could earn more by making people laugh.

His upbeat demeanour has since become a regular feature of comedy festivals and on TV and film.

He even turned his life story into a best-selling book, The Happiest Refugee - a story that caught the attention of one of Australia's biggest stars.

"I got this phone call and this big voice said 'Anh, it's Russell Crowe,'" Do said.

"He told me he loved the book and I've since signed a deal with Russell to turn the book into a film."

Following the death of a close friend, Do took up painting about six years ago, taking a college course and enlisting the help of an established artist to refine his style.

His new TV show, Anh's Brush with Fame, merges his talents. He paints and interviews a raft of Australian celebrities from his inner-city Sydney warehouse.

Do works quickly in a contemporary style, slathering thick strokes of paint onto the canvas with palette knives.

Taking a seat on the show are actors Craig McLachlan and Magda Szubanski; singers Jimmy Barnes and Kate Ceberano; radio hosts Amanda Keller and Kyle Sandilands; boxer Anthony Mundine and surgeon Charlie Teo.

As they sit for him, Do makes them laugh and also gets them to reveal a few secrets about their lives in front of the cameras.

It all leads to the moment when the subjects get to see their completed portrait.

"That's been one of the delights of the show," he said.

"At the end of the show I spin the painting around and I show them. And I'm so nervous - I want them to like it. They all tell me they like it but I can tell that some of them don't!"

It's a show that combines his talent for painting and for talking to interesting people, revealing a different side to the people that step into his studio.

"I am naturally a very curious person," he said.

"I'm not a fan of small talk but if you want to get into the big questions of life - your deepest regret, your greatest joy - then we're going to have a great chat."

I AM Malala is a remarkable and astonishing story about a family heavily affected by terrorism and the fight for quality education amongst girls rights of education. This is a beautiful story about how people from any varying background can make a difference no matter where they see themselves. I would highly recommend this book as it teaches you ways to act and go for your wildest aspirations and dreams along with the strong theme of passion thrown amongst that mix. It portrays all ways in which people should act and how they should act upon things in the right manner and fight for what they consider to be right.

it shows how parents who have a fierce love for their daughter in a society that values sons can still push for greater change.

Bradman's War is a book about how the 1948 invincibles turned their cricketing rivalry into a battlefield in the ashes series. between England.
Although Bradman was a very selfish and self centred man he was a true hero of a nation that was able to hold his patience and capitalise for his country.
I would recommend this book as it shows true Australian spirit and perhaps one of the biggest tales of rivalry in the History of Sport.
