A rollicking seasonal picture book about a group of Australian animals struggling to find the right decorations for their Christmas gum tree.

From his lofty watch post, Possum is drawn to the sight of a distant tree covered in sparkling trinkets. A Christmas Tree, according to Kookaburra. So begins a quest in which Possum and his crafty crew of helpers try very hard to decorate their very own Christmas gum tree from Bowerbird’s treasure trove. But it’s not as easy as you might think!

An Aussie Christmas Gum Tree by Jackie Hosking is a delightful tale of imagination and festive cheer, perfect for the holiday season.
