Travel Guide

Two possoms take you around  a tour of some of the most delicious food in Australia. How cute and delicious is that!?
Having been made invisible, Grandma Possum can’t find the right spell to reverse the spell so they both set off on a tour on their bike to find the right kind of human food that will make things right again.

They live deep in the Australian bush where being an invisible possom means you can slide down a kangaroo without being seen. According to the book, in a certain part of the bush there could well be blue wombats and pink kookaburras as well….

They take a rather old and creaky bike and set off taking in all the sights and tastes they can think of.

A trail around the capital cities of Australia, and the local treats such as ANZAC biscuits, lamingtons (a sponge coated in both chocolate and coconut) and pumpkin scones.

There is a map of Australia on the back page, and a description of each yummy delight so this is a book that you can really booktrail in more ways than one.
