AZARIA:

A TRUE HISTORY

Maree Coote

What happens when the truth gets lost? Where wild animals and people meet, tragedy can strike. But when a tiny baby is stolen by a dingo, people simply cannot accept such a thing. Prejudice and gossip grip the nation, and the tragedy transforms into a fight for the truth. How did it all go so wrong? This is a true Australian story of innocence, ignorance, and the perils of mob thinking.

• ‘An important story for children about one of Australia’s most dramatic miscarriages of justice.’ — The Hon. Justice Lex Lasry, AM.

• ‘A modern day true fairy tale, cautionary and unforgettable. Essential reading for students of history and the law, young and old.’

DOGOGRAPHY:

THE AMAZING WORLD OF LETTER ART DOGS

Maree Coote

How do you spell DOG? In a brand new collection of typographic doggy delights this award-winning illustrator shows you a whole new way to spell your best friend. Each picture is created using only the letters that spell each dog’s name. Each page contains a key of the fonts used to help you find the letters that spell each portrait. Letter Art helps associate letters with words and images, and encourages letter-recognition, observation, spelling, and design skills.

• Maree Coote’s Letter Art has been described by CBCA, Kirkus Reviews NY, Publishers Weekly USA, Booklist Magazine USA and Foreword Reviews USA as: ‘funky’, ‘intriguing’, ‘eye-catching’, ‘inventive’ and ‘dazzling’.
