'Dashing through the bush, in a rusty Holden ute, Kicking up the dust, esky in the boot. Kelpie by my side, singing Christmas songs, Its summertime and I am in my singlet, shorts and thongs. One of the worlds best-loved Christmas carols is given a hilarious Aussie twist. This version has become a staple at end-of-year school concerts. You can enjoy Colin Buchanan singing and then create your very own karaoke session but wait until you hear the unique, once-in-a-lifetime blowfly version! Nick Blands comical illustrations show the whole family enjoying Christmas Day: see who you can recognise!' (Publication summary)
