His time in the bush inspired these stories telling about the lives and habits of nine of our incredible native animals. Including tales about the Bower-bird, Possum, Kookaburra, Dingo, Wren, Goanna, Cockatoo, Koala and Brolga the Sydney Morning Herald said of this collection "Spotty the Bower Bird is a delightful book for youngsters that should be on every Australian child's bookshelf."
