Wild Adventures for the Whole Family
Outback adventurer and television star, Troy Dann grew up on a cattle station near Alice Springs. From the day he was born, he learned all that the bush could teach him. So who better to bring the outback alive for all Australians? In his first book for younger readers and families, Troy explores and exposes his Australia. He takes us on a wonderful journey of discovery, where we can find out about brumbies and dingoes, lizards and euros, pearls and opals, death adders and ferocious salt water crocodiles. He takes us to some of his favourite spots, like the breathtaking Litchfield waterfall, and the wide brown land near his homestead. Troy shares some of his insights and observations about Australia's unique bird life, and he introduces us to some of the more colourful people who have made their mark on outback Australia.
How do you break in a camel? Is there still gold in the outback? What do you do if you come face-to-face with a deadly tiger snake? All of these questions are answered in 'Troy Dann's Outback'. And Troy lets us in on some of his secrets, as well as useful tips for getting by in the bush. This beautifully designed book has marvellous full-colour photographs throughout.
