Review

This collection of poems by Lorraine Marwood takes you through a complete year of living in Australia.

From Australia Day, starting school, Easter, sporting events and carnivals, Mother’s day, birthdays, weddings, graduations, and the list goes on and on. It highlights all that we have to celebrate.

It is a wonderful collection that can be used in the classroom throughout the year as the celebrations occur, or can just be enjoyed by boys and girls of all ages to read alone.
