Review:
"'When I was little I lived on a farm overlooking the sea.' Thus begins a lively Australian recollection that manages to steer clear of nostalgia . . . in favor of remembered mini-stories that will set newer folks yearning for some agricultural action of their own."
"The author's writing and illustrating style is delicate. Her watercolors, neatly lined with ink, the highly stylized figures and faces, and the abundant detailing all contribute to this lovely book."
"Radiant with childhood delight, the book lovingly depicts intriguing particulars of everyday life in a faraway place, a place that seems both familiar and strange." Booklist, ALA
