Book Description
The day before Christmas, Kathryn's present from Uncle Dingo arrives in a big box. Naturally, it's a lively kangaroo. Kathryn can't wait to show grandma, so she hops onto Adelaide's back and off they go! But getting to Grandma's proves more difficult than expected. Honking horns and screeching breaks frighten Adelaide into taking off on her own. In typical James Flora fashion, chaos and pure silliness ensue!

Nothing seems just right until the little mouse realizes that the best present of all is already at hand.

Book Description
This book reaches a number of goals. Australia has the unique distinction of being in the Southern Hemisphere and the Eastern Hemisphere. Sydney, Australia is just two Time Zones from the International Dateline. Joey the Christmas Kangaroo not only brings these two hemispheres into play, but also brings the summer season and a new animal character onto the Christmas scene. Just as Joey says in this book, "Christmas belongs to the world." It has always seemed to me there was an emptiness on the seat next to Santa. My feelings are that Joey the Christmas Kangaroo fills this emptiness, gives a little more warmth and brings many more smiles to Santa's sleigh.

Book Description
Rolf Harris was always amazed that in his home town of Perth, Christmas temperatures reached over thirty degrees, yet people were singing songs about Christmas in the snow! So he set out to write something that would capture the difference about Christmas in Australia, where there's no snow at Christmas, and reindeer are found only in zoos. The result is Six White Boomers, an immediate success when it was released in 1960. Published as a picture book, it introduces a whole new generation to this true-blue Australian classic. Sing along with Rolf as you enjoy the fun of this unique Christmas song.
