Austrlalian Book Recommendation Needed
July 15, 2006
After reading last year's post on the Australian children's book awards, a reader would like to know about other children's picture books that involve travel around Australia. I had mentioned Alison Lester's wonderful Are We There Yet?, which we loved, and the reader knew of Mem Fox's Possum Magic. Do any of you have other such books to recommend? Thanks!
Not a picture book, but one of few books I know about the South Asian diaspora in Australia: Kalpana’s Dream by Judith Clarke. It has some travel in it.

Thank you, Pooja.

Lizzie Nonsense by Jan Ormerod might fit into that category.
