Boondaburra is being featured on the Australian Christian Readers Blog Alliance this week. Information about the author and more details about the book can be found here.

Boondaburrra is a lovely story about a platypus that feels rejected because he is not like other animals. However following a devastating bush fire, it turns out that he is made just right to help out.

This is a story that many children will relate to, especially if they have ever been laugh at for being different. It has beautiful pictures and an attractive font. It is especially delightful because it is set in the Australian bush with uniquely Australian animals.

I also like the message of the story that, despite our differences, God has equipped us to help others in times of need.

Thanks to Even Before Publishing for providing a free book for review.
