DESCRIPTION:

This story is about Malu Kangaroo teaching the first children how to surf and how to play with the ocean, and it reflects a lifestyle that most present-day Australians have grown up with—we all enjoy playing with the ocean and many of us surf the waves. So there is a meeting of cultures that will ring true for readers of all ages. The story is told simply, in the straightforward style of a traditional tale, but the real narrative is in the richly detailed, intricate and brightly coloured illustrations. So beautiful are the shapes and patterns of the coastline, the waves and the creatures that emerge, that the dots in the paintings are almost tactile and the colours leap from the page. This is a book that can be visited many times, especially to explore the pictures and the riches they reveal.
