And Kangaroo Played His Didgeridoo

https://resource.scholastic.com.au/ProductImages/7664715_T.jpg

You should have come to this Great Aussie Do
The guest list read like an Aussie Who’s Who,
And Kangaroo played his didgeridoo.

They came from all over to Uluru,
Death Adder crawled and Bowerbird flew,
And Kangaroo played his didgeridoo.

Glen Singleton’s fun illustrations complement Nigel Gray’s catchy and rhythmic poem, which tells of a fantastic party in the outback attended by animals from all over Australia. And Kangaroo Played His Didgeridoo

My Country

https://resource.scholastic.com.au/ProductImages/8644839_T.jpg

I love a sunburnt country,

A land of sweeping plains,

Of ragged mountain ranges,

Of droughts and flooding rains.

I love her far horizons,

I love her jewel-sea,

Her beauty and her terror—

The wide brown land for me!

Dorothea MacKellar's iconic poem, beautifully illustrated by Andrew McLean, depicts Australia in all its contrasts.
