In My Backyard

by Nette Hilton, Anne Spudvilas (Illustrator)

Here is a playground of dazzling lights, sounds and noises, shapes and patterns, buildings that reach to the sky and the bellies of aeroplanes, almost close enough to touch. Here is a chance to stop, look and really see and hear the city that is In My Backyard.

Author Biography: Nette Hilton has written many books for children and adults. She lives on the north coast of New South Wales with her family and assorted animals. Her life is shared between writing and her long-term relationship with the NSW Department of Education and Training.

[Shane · Rating 4 out of 5]

A book that celebrates the joys, discoveries and adventures that can be found living in the city. I just read it to my students, paired with The Comet and it worked really well.
