Blurb:

 

Santa Claus has landed outback and is busily checking his list. The kangaroos are in charge of all the presents and his koala helpers are not being much help at all!

And are those crocodiles really “a-snoozing?”

With surfing sharks, skiing snakes, dancing dingoes, leaping lizards and lots more, Michael Salmon’s Aussie characters come to life in pictures and verse.

Welcome to Christmas ‘down-under’!

 

Review:

 

This is one really groovy version of the 12 Days of Christmas.

 

The pictures are amazing and the words are very quirky.

 

I loved reading this and I am sure that my future kids will really enjoy this book.

 

5/5
