Topsy Turvy World : How Australian Animals Puzzled Early Explorers by Kirsty Murray

$14.99 AUD

Available Stock:
6

Category: Animals

To the first Europeans who came to Australia, everything seemed topsy turvy. Christmas was in the summer and trees shed their bark but not their leaves. And the animals were bizarre. There was a bird that laughed like a donkey and a type of greyhound that bound along on its hind legs like a hare. There was an animal in Tasmania whose nocturnal screeches sounded like the devil and a river creature that had a duck's bill at one end and a beaver's tail at the other. The Europeans had never seen anything like these animals before and gave them names similar to those of the European creatures they already knew. They drew and painted odd pictures of them, showing they did not understand the animals' habits. In one illustration, a wombat is standing on its back legs and in another a Tasmanian tiger is wrestling with a platypus of the same size. ...Show more

Dear grown-ups, let’s face it - discussing sex with kids can be a painfully awkward and overly complex experience. Though it needn’t be that way, as sex is the most natural thing in the world. For starters, all animals do it , and what’s so fascinating are all the interesting and comical ways of just ho w some animals mate. From the downright bizarre (penis fencing worms) to the simply hilarious (hippos firing poo) we hope that by framing human sex in the context of how some other creatures on the planet do it, sex not only becomes a far more approachable and entertaining subject to discuss, but your child will also soon discover that we are the most normal, safe and joyous of the lot! ...Show more
