Three reasons to read it:
- Bunting’s artwork is bold, funny and packed with character, using moody colours and expressive faces to set the scene. Dropbear looks just scary enough to give you a thrill, but also soft and silly in a way that makes you smile. Every page is a visual treat that adds to the mystery and humour.
- Everyone has heard the stories: dropbears are mean, savage, and hiding in the treetops waiting to pounce. But in this story, readers get to meet the infamous Dropbear for themselves. What they discover is unexpected, hilarious, and turns the legend upside down.
- Dropbear is perfect for young readers aged three to seven, but older kids and grown-ups will enjoy the twist too. It’s full of suspense, surprises, and giggles, all rolled into one clever bushland adventure. Whether you’re reading aloud at bedtime or exploring it solo, it’s a story you’ll want to come back to.
