Buckley the Kilcoy Yowie - Tony Squire - Bog

Let the magic of a Dreamtime legend take you back to a more innocent time in history. Buckley the Yowie is immortal, loveable, and magical, but is misjudged and feared by the First Australians. A chance meeting with an escaped convict sets Buckley on a journey of discovery, and love, for his first ever companion, his new found family, and his soon to be home town of Kilcoy, in Queensland's Outback. This first edition, in a series of stories, celebrates this noble character of the Australian Outback who will soon become famous for his innocence, knowledge and wisdom. Buckley's first adventure is packed with great moments and characters, including the building of an outback town, and the sadness and pride brought by the Great War. A must have for any young reader who has ever imagined sitting under the stars listening to stories from true history and legend.
