What country holds the title as the world's smallest continent and yet the world's largest island? I stands for island, but one that's not too small. Our island is enormous. Just try to see it all! There's no place else quite like it; that is clearly true. Australia is a continent, but it's an island, too. Originally founded as a penal colony, Australia has long been known for its contrasts (think: wild outback and sophisticated Sydney Opera House). Accompanied by vibrant colorful artwork, D is for Down Under: An Australia Alphabet captures the spirit of this proud country and its many treasures, natural and man-made. Visit spectacular Sydney Harbor, try your hand as a jackaroo working a sheep station, or just sit back and enjoy a Vegemite sandwich. Below the starry night glitter of the Southern Cross constellation, Australia's "down under" wonders shine brightly. Devin Scillian is an award-winning author and Emmy-award-winning broadcast journalist. His books with Sleeping Bear Press include the national bestseller A is for America: An American Alphabet. Devin lives in Michigan and anchors the news for WDIV-TV in Detroit. Geoff Cook has been illustrating for 35 years. His career began as a graphic designer, after graduating from Prahran College in Melbourne. Soon realizing he wanted to be an illustrator, he became a partner in the illustration studio All Australian Graffiti. He lives in Australia.

There’s lots of fun to be had up on the beach pier, but it’s down underneath where the true—and totally free—magic happens There’s lots of fun to be had up on the pier—the Ferris wheel, the rollercoaster, Skee-Ball and Whac-A-Mole, cotton candy, copper coins, the carousel. But it’s down under the pier, at low tide, where the real magic can be found. The best part? It’s free. Nell Beckerman’s poetic text and deep love of the intertidal zone, and Rachell Sumpter’s dreamy, “endless summer” art make this the perfect beach book.

The blustery south-easterly flung the salty spray over the starboard bow as the Daring Class destroyer, DO4 pitched headlong into the five metre swell, dousing the crew members scurrying to secure the foredeck. The Tasman Sea was living up to her reputation. Down below, off-duty sailors were either busying themselves with ablutions, losing their pays at poker or flopped on their bunks (or the deck) reading unmentionable titles. But most were in the mid-ships mess trusting their luck and hoping the numbers would fall their way in the twice-weekly ritual of Tombola. At this very moment it was hard to imagine that within a week, the lives of all 330 men aboard would be changed forever.This is a story based on real life naval experiences during the 1960s. It takes you on the journey of a young sailor's often chaotic life, punctuated by misadventure and unpredictable, sometimes tragic circumstance. The names of characters and details of some events have been fictionalised to protect the innocent, the not-so innocent and those who are totally oblivious to their inclusion in this story.This is the first book in what is intended as a three book series, with book 2 completion anticipated by December 2018
