AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Tibby feels like everything is going wrong. Her big brother Clarence is all grown up, and doesn't want to play with her any more. If Clarence says there aren't any pixies except in books, then what exactly did Tibby see in the bush, peering out from behind a leaf?' (National Museum)

Notes

  • 'Tibby's Leaf was inspired by a postcard called 'Off to the war' designed by May Gibbs and featuring her famous gumnut fairies. This postcard is now part of the National Museum of Australia's collection.'
