My Country by Dorothea MacKellar

My Country by Dorothea MacKellarMy Country by Dorothea MacKellar I love a sunburnt country, A land of sweeping plains, Of ragged mountain ranges, Of droughts and flooding rains. I love her far horizons, I love her jewel sea, Her beauty and her terror The wide brown land for me! Dorothea MacKellar's iconic poem, beautifully illustrated by Andrew McLean, depicts Australia in all its contrasts.

How many humans would a T Rex rampaging through New York need to eat a day

Wild Place is a white-knuckle descent into a street near you

rediscover your passions

Fiercely individualistic and driven by a desire 'to be the first to penetrate this region'

The catalogue also offers the reader an insight into the life of the artist and the country he lived in and painted

he only finds letters

On Paddington station

and strength in our homes

filled with careful description of people

Infiltrates

and her presence may upset the delicate balance between two worlds

while sharing a deeper message for older readers
