When we think about bushfires in Australia, our thoughts are for people and property. But what about the animals?

Just imagine how frightening the sights and sounds of a bushfire must be: flames, the sounds of crackling, thick black smoke, sparks being carried on the wind igniting everything in its path, animals fleeing, these are the sounds and smells of bushfires.

This book is based on the real life story of a koala nicknamed Cinders who survived two bushfires.
The story portrays the determination, love and survival instincts of a mother koala who protects her young joey from a raging bushfire. After getting her joey down safely from the tree she embarks on a journey in search of food. Encountering people and a dog along the way she eventually finds a new source of food and a home for them both.

This is a thought-provoking book, reminding us that animals matter too! It is supported by wonderful illustrations and anyone who loves animals will love this book.

Hey, it's me, Ginger Meggs

- well, you can call me Meggsie s'long as you don't hang around with that creep Coogan. And speaking of that rat - someone let him slide into this book of mine and you can bet your best pocket knife that that spells trouble (or elbuort if you start at the wrong end). So don't cheat. Start at the beginning and see whether Coogan and Kelly and Nolan get the better of Bennie and Chubb and me.

See Ya, Ginger Meggs

This story begins with Grandma’s plans to be a ‘good grandma.’ She even takes her knitting when she goes to watch the All Blacks in training. She sits and waits and knits but where are the boys? They’re hiding in the change room. Luckily, there’s nothing wrong that a dose of Gran’s marmalade can’t fix.
Next morning however, the team refuses to get up. The coach asks Gran for help. ‘They need a break,’ she tells him. She puts her granny chores aside and leads the boys off for some fun and adventure.
By Friday, their enthusiasm is restored. But on Saturday when Gran arrives at the stadium to cheer them on in the big match, disaster awaits. The captain has chicken pox. Grandma takes on yet another challenge as she dives into the fray, marmalade, boots and all.

When Grandma died, lots of people came to our house. "Who could ever step into such a woman's shoes?" the family asked. After hearing those words, a little girl slips her feet into her grandmother's big shoes, and is magically transported on a fantastic journey filled with images reminiscent of her grandma: a brush of butterfly wings so like her old hands, the smell of her garden, a special patch of midnight sky. Each night the girl searches for her beloved grandma in these images, as during the day she and her family begin to slow process of adjusting to their loss. Realistic family moments and emotionally powerful fantasy scenes combine to create a beautiful book about a family healing from the death of a loved one.
