Quotes
Grandma Poss made bush magic.
Hush, whispered Grandma Poss. It's time.
Off they went with a hop and a bound.
They travelled all over Australia.
The koala sat up in the big tree and looked down at them.
The emu danced through the spinifex.
The kookaburra laughed and laughed.
The wombats dug holes and hid.
The penguin swam in the ocean.
The kangaroo picked up her joey and hopped away.
The possums scampered up the gum tree.
The dingo howled at the moon.
