This delightful, 28 page picture book, tells of the importance of school in a rollicking rhyme to engage children's attention. Beautifully illustrated, the story addresses a young wombat's concern that he is "hopeless" because he can't yet read or write or keep up with the other animals in the playground.
The "Aussie Outback School" is the second book by author Megan Bartlett-Horne and illustrator Sue "Penny" Horne. Their 1st book, "The Aussie Outback Party" was a finalist in the 2009 Australian Bush Laureate awards and is sold throughout Australia.
Bartlett-Horne is currently working on her 3rd book in the Aussie Outback Series, which will be released later this year.
