Australia Books

 I just finished 2 books, which are both on the ink website (www.inknewspaper.net) and will soon be available on the Living Book Press (www.livingbookpress.com). Here are the descriptions:

The Story of Our Continent: Australia

This book goes through Australia’s history, from the Aboriginals who first lived there, to Captain Cook, the different explorers and expeditions, through World War I and II, up until today (2023). It tells the history of Australia through stories with photographs and some famous paintings to help illustrate them. 


The Geography of Australia and New Zealand for Kids

Explore the places, deserts, mountains, sea, animals, and people of Australia and New Zealand through this book. This book goes through each state of Australia (including Tasmania Island) and then New Zealand. Included are map questions, review questions, famous artists of Australia (whose drawings and paintings help Australia come to life), and interviews with people who live in some of Australia’s cities and have some unique jobs. You’ll need a good atlas or map as you go through this book to answer the map questions.
