The Croc and the Platypus - Jackie Hosking

$16.99

An Australian reimagining of Edward Lear's nonsense poem The Owl and the Pussycat. 

The croc and the platypus trundled off in a rusty old Holden ute. They took some damper and tea in a hamper and bundled it up in the boot. 

Join Croc and Platypus for an Australian outback hullabaloo!
