Under the Southern Cross

This book explores Australia after dark. As with A is for Australia and A is for Australian Animals, each spread will contain high interest facts accompanied by lush illustrations, and will include content such as New Year’s Eve fireworks in Sydney Harbour, Darwin night markets, turtle hatching in Qld and the Aurora Australis in Tasmania.
