From the western plains of NSW, come the charming works of award-winning poet Maggie May Gordon, in collaboration with regional artist Faye Gardiner, in a classic collection of Australian poetry known as "Country Rhymes ... for those who love the land".

In her delightful illustrations, Faye has captured the amazing colours of the Outback ... allowing your mind to be consumed as you journey through the captivating verse. Country Rhymes are more than just poetry, but rather pieces of art that capture the tranquility of the Australian countryside.

The Country Rhymes Gallery includes over 20 A4 poetic prints (ideal for framing/laminating/school projects and special occasions). There's also the "Memories to Share" card/envelope range. And then there's the books!

A Land Called Country ... a 48 page book of verse. Each poem takes you on a journey which explores the traditional way of life in the outback .. from the excitement of "Show Fever!" to childhood memories of "Damper & Tea"; from the majestic "Rivers: Land's Destiny" to the plight of "The Grazier's Lament" ... not forgetting such humorous poems as "The Cocky's Wife"!

Jack's Outback ... a 60-page anthology of short stories set in a 'wide brown land" ... from "A Swag": so unique to Australian culture, to "Tom, Dick & Harry": who epitomise the bravado of
the Australian jackaroo.

Both books are bound & illustrated with colour plates and make beautiful keepsakes.

Country Rhymes for Country Kids ... and for kids who love the country! ... a delightful book of Australiana poems for the young.

In A Country Garden ... a book of charming flowery verses and a must for garden enthusiasts.

Country Rhymes offers an ideal gift for everyone ... from the farmer to the poetry lover; even the grandchildren will love listening to the stories of the Outback, told in the truly unique and magical way of Maggie May Gordon.
