Description

What country holds the title as the world’s smallest continent and yet the world’s largest island? I stands for island, but one that isn’t too small. Our island is enormous. Just try to see it all! There is no place else moderately adore it; that may be clearly true. Australia is a continent, but it’s an island, too. At the beginning founded as a penal colony, Australia has long been known for its contrasts (think: wild outback and sophisticated Sydney Opera House). Accompanied by vibrant colorful artwork, D is for Down Under: An Australia Alphabet captures the spirit of this proud country and its many treasures, natural and man-made. Visit spectacular Sydney Harbor, try your hand as a jackaroo working a sheep station, or just take a seat back and enjoy a Vegemite sandwich. Below the starry night glitter of the Southern Cross constellation, Australia’s “down under” wonders shine brightly.
