A familiar and currently topical theme of drought, this book really stands out for its familiar South Australian setting and environment. The first page acknowledges the first local people of the land, the Nowie, meaning 'sunset country'/ Rich, beautiful illustrations in oil paints support the lyrical test conveying the strength of the people and the natural cycle of life in this environment.
