My great niece wrote me a letter because her teacher wanted to send her parents a signed copy of Kookaburra. That letter led to a school visit yesterday to the delightful Harcourt Valley Primary School. Thanks for your letter Ada. Thanks for gifting Kookaburra to your parents Mrs H so they could read it to their visiting kookas. I love my job and the connections it makes. #kookaburra @tannyaharricksillustration @walkerbooksaus #naturestorybooks #childrensbooks #picturebooks #australia #australian animals
