AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'In Santa's Aussie Holiday Santa takes a much deserved break after his busy Christmas Eve delivering gifts. And what better place to do it than Down Under? Santa travels around Australia from Sydney to Perth in his singlet, boardies and thongs and is shown the sights (and how to surf) by his Aussie mate Croc. This is a fun story with appealing illustrations by Anna Walker.' (Publication summary)
