EnidBiteEm @Marchpane @Trav Don't they have such adorable names? 😍 8y
EnidBiteEm @LeahBergen Are you an Aussie? I'm not sure they made it very far afield. When The Gumnut Babies was first published, there weren't really any Australian publishing houses, and what books were sold were decided upon by British booksellers (who often saw us as a convict backwater). 8y
Trav I love them! I am an Aussie though so I absolutely adore them. 8y
LeahBergen I'm Canadian but haven't come across them here (and I would have loved them, I'm sure!) 8y
EnidBiteEm @Trav lucky us for knowing May Gibbs. @LeahBergen hooray for the net! 8y
EnidBiteEm Oh yeah ... and @Litsy 😂 8y
