Santa Claus has landed outback and is busily checking his list. The kangaroos are in charge of all the presents and his koala helpers are not being much help at all!

With surfing sharks, skiing snakes, dancing dingoes, leaping lizards and lots more, Michael Salmon's Aussie characters come to life in pictures and verse.

Welcome to Christmas 'down-under'!
