A Merry Aussie Christmas

Their relationship is so fake it comes with costumes… At seventeen, Jasper left Patterson’s Bluff so fast the dust cloud never settled. But when fate brings him back, he’s ready to prove he’s not a bad egg like his criminal father. So, he slaps some reindeer antlers on his Basset Hound and volunteers to be Santa for the festive season. Being her hometown’s official Mrs. Claus was supposed to be fun. Instead, Evie is stuck being “married” to the sexy bad boy she crushed on in high school. The same one who broke her heart when he left town. But she can’t deny their chemistry burns hotter than an open fire. It’ll take a holiday miracle for them not to ruin Christmas. Can the misunderstood bad boy and the town golden girl get a second chance at love? Or will Evie be stuck in Jasper’s rear-view mirror once more? A Merry Aussie Christmas contains Aussie slang, adorable dog-related shenanigans, second chances and the bedroom door is flung wide open! Yep, there's steam inside.

Special 10th anniversary edition of an Aussie holiday favourite. Twas the night before Christmas; there wasnt a sound. Not a possum was stirring; no-one was around. Wed left on the table some tucker and beer, Hoping that Santa Claus soon would be here. Christmas in the middle of an Australian summer means Santa has to find new ways to deliver his presents. The obvious solutions are to don a sunhat, shorts and a pair of thongs, not to mention ditching the sleigh and reindeer in favour of some roos and a ute. The gentle illustrations are packed with familiar icons cleverly woven into the visual narrative to recreate the warm, comforting, family atmosphere that Christmas is all about.

Have lots of holiday fun! Enjoy a merry Aussie Christmas with Santa and all the Christmas animals. Colour the pictures, join the dots, solve mazes, play games, do craft projects, search and find, spot the difference and heaps more!

Rolf Harris was always amazed that in his home town of Perth, Christmas temperatures reached over thirty degrees, yet people were singing songs about Christmas in the snow! So he set out to write something that would capture the difference about Christmas in Australia, where there's no snow at Christmas, and reindeer are found only in zoos. The result is Six White Boomers, an immediate success when it was released in 1960. Published as a picture book, it introduces a whole new generation to this true-blue Australian classic. Sing along with Rolf as you enjoy the fun of this unique Christmas song.
