Description
“At the time this book was first published and became a recommended school textbook, its imaginative images and story lines fitted in well with those of contemporaneous Australian author-artists such as May Gibbs and Ida Rentoul Outhwaite. We do hope that now, retaining this old-world reverence for the magic in our unique Australian bushland, this book can find a new enchanted audience and help us to better understand and cherish our natural world.” – a note from the author’s children.
