AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Cheeky dogs, slippery snakes and crocodiles with great big smiles are some of the characters who join Anna the Goanna in this illustrated poem. The author and illustrator take us into childrens' daily adventures and family traditions as they camp under the stars, go hunting for tucker, and play footy in the dust.'
