Captain Kangaroo and the Big Bush Bash

Hachette Australia, 2012 - Australia - 24 pages

In CAPTAIN KANGAROO AND THE BIG BUSH BASH, five teams test their skills in this infamous race that takes contestants across the beautiful Australian landscape. Our teams cross the Murray in a paddlesteamer, search for opals in the Opal Fields of Lightning Ridge, meet the Flying Doctors in Alice, and finally reach the finish line in Broken Hill a little dusty but no worse for wear.
