Town Possum, Outback Possum by Yvonne Morrison Pdf

If Aesop had been born Australian, this is the story he would have written instead of The Town Mouse and the Country Mouse. As it is, Yvonne Morrison has done the job for him—telling the raucous tale of Outback Possum, who loves to chew leaves and watch sunsets, and Town Possum, who loves adventure and fun. When Outback Possum visits his cousin in town, and experiences a bit of high adventure and a few close shaves, he decides that the quiet life is the life for him. This is a hilarious re-telling of the age old Aesop Fable, brightly illustrated by the brilliant Heath McKenzie in bold colours. The characters are incredibly emotive, and Heath manages to capture the most hilarious expressions! An easy rhyming text which will make bedtime reading a pleasure. The companion title to the popular The Cocky Who Cried Dingo.
