Her passion is getting kids reading, and her life's mission is to get the right books in the right hands. Ask her for advice or recommend something to her and watch her eyes light up!

This is an inspiring, well illustrated biography of an iconic Australian, perfect for ages four and up. King of the Outback describes the tale of Sidney Kidman from when he left home at 13 with 50 cents in his pocket  to his rise in wealth and popularity, knighted for his services to the Commonwealth, donating thousands of horses to the Australian Army along with beef and wool It includes the mass stampede and the heroic actions of the Kidman Stockmen at Sid's 75th birthday rodeo. A great nonfiction addition to any library.
