    About this ebook

    As morning breaks over Australia’s red earth, a rustling sound can be heard. Lizards stand on their hind legs while the ants are making tea. Animals trade desert peas for internet access, koalas and termites share bottles of pop, and the buffalo ride into town on Harleys. When night falls, the community breaks out into dancing and revelry.

    This latest story from Angelica Bordeaux, in the vein of “The Spider” and “The Incredible Mr Bones”, once again displays her gift for portraying the fascinating lives of animals. With an ensemble cast of Australian bush creatures, “At the End of Australia” will move you to laughter and wonderment.

      The morning skies are happy, and filled with crimson and white billowing clouds a little over the horizon. The red earth is much like a velvet carpet, with the letters S.S.S. carved in and over the surface.

      The trees are few, and with the breeze that blew with strength, the look is like one who combs their hair to the right side. Far inland, just offshore, are pounding sounds that make the trees of tea drop their leaves, and salt is sprayed all around the location.

      Every now and again, a rustling sound is heard. With a thump and scuffle I wonder, who is listening? What was the rustling sound under the tea tree? And the tiny papers lying out in the day’s sunlight?
