Ozzie Goes to School is a book that will resonate with and reassure many young children going to school for the first time.
Ozzie lives with his dad in a shipping container by the sea in the Top End of Australia. Ozzie isn't afraid of much. Not the cool dark of the container when the door is closed at night. Not snakes. Not even of the crocodiles that he and his dad watch out for on the beach during the day.
But Ozzie is afraid of something. He's afraid of school!
In this delightful story about a boy starting school, Ozzie faces up to his fears of being without his dad in a strange place with new people - and comes up trumps!

About the Author
Jocelyn Crabb was born and raised in British Colombia, Canada, and graduated from the University of Calgary with a Masters in Education. Since graduating Jocelyn has taught in Canada, South America, Mexico and China, Malaysia and the Middle East. In 2008 she moved to Australia where she worked as a teacher-trainer in a variety of Aboriginal Communities before returning to the classroom as a primary school teacher and a teaching principal. Jocelyn now lives permanently in the Northern Territory and is the author of several self-published travel books, a blog entitled 'Work and Travel' and the picture bookย Ozzie Goes to School illustrated by Danny Snell. As a child Danny ยญSnell was a reluctant reader, so it was pictures rather than words that drew him to the wonder of books. Danny went on to study graphic design and illustration at the University of South Australia and he now works as a picture book illustrator and author. Danny illustrates using digital media, focusing on simple compositions, subtle texture and a touch of whimsy. His books have won a number of awards including the CBCA Eve Pownall Award, the Environment Award for Children's Literature, and The Speech Pathology Australia Book of the Year Award. Danny lives in Adelaide with his partner, his two daughters and a sleepy old cat. He enjoys cooking and swimming, and yes, he loves to read.
