Lucky’s Star

The Story of a Meteorite

"Lucky's Star will surely delight primary-aged students with its cleaver combination of storytelling and facts."

Merril Darling, Books + Publishing, 8 April 2025

"Nature abounds and is moving around us constantly. But in the modern world it is easy to forget that wildlife often can’t reach the places to which they most need to go. This beautifully illustrated book is an ideal introduction for enquiring young minds to learn more about the variety of our precious wildlife and what they need to simply 'get around'."

Gary Howling, CEO, Great Eastern Ranges

"This strikingly illustrated new release, Cassowary Dad, is a wonderful book to read aloud and share with children."
