A poetic journey through Queensland for ages 5–10. Read it aloud with younger children, or let developing readers discover the sights, sounds and traditions of the Sunshine State.
Hear summer rain drum on a tin roof and imagine frangipani in the warm evening air. In My Queensland, lyrical verse travels from golden beaches and lush rainforests to lively city streets and country towns. Along the way are geckoes at dusk, the excitement of the Ekka, State of Origin and the natural wonder of the Great Barrier Reef.
