Explore an Australian country town through time in this innovative and informative picture book.


Country Town tells the history of a fictional Australian town. See the town evolve as it is glimpsed from the same vantage point nearly every decade - from the First Nations mob living by the river crossing in the 1820s through to the present. Each page has a timeline highlighting major events happening in the town at that time in history and young readers can pore over each spread to discover the stories of the community.
