Description
Snugglepot and Cuddlepie
By May Gibbs
Australian Children’s Classics.
For so many years, so many children have thrilled to The Complete Adventures of Snugglepot and Cuddlepie that it has become, undoubtedly, Australia’s best-loved children’s book. May Gibbs’ enchanting bush world, peopled with gumnut heroes and heroines, solid friends like Mr Lizard and Mrs Bear and of course, the villainous Banksia men, has played as important a part in the imaginative background of Australian children as The Wind in the Willows or Alice in Wonderland.
Children who have not yet made the acquaintance of the Nuts and their friends will welcome this paperback edition. It includes most of the original illustrations, which contribute as much as the stories to the charm, humour and character of May Gibbs’ classic.
