Two Mates is a heartwarming true story about the special bond between two boys growing up side by side in the coastal town of Broome, in Australia’s north-west.
Jack is Indigenous, and Raf is non-Indigenous and lives with spina bifida. Together, they take readers on an adventure through their everyday lives—hunting for barni, searching for hermit crabs, fishing for salmon, exploring local markets, sharing satays, and dressing up as superheroes. Raf’s wheelchair isn’t revealed until the end, showing that their friendship comes first—barriers don’t define it.

Now Melanie works in Broome for the Education Department of WA assisting young people to connect with training and employment opportunities.
