A Footy Tail

Inspired by the South Sydney Rabbitohs, written by NRL star Alex Johnston and illustrated by celebrated First Nations artist Gregg Dreise, this rhyming picture book about an underdog team of bunnies who are up against the stronger teams of animals is a wonderful story of unity, togetherness, resilience and teamwork.


A fluffle of Bunnies play at the park.

They sprint and they tackle from dawn until dark,

They always train hard, but it's never enough . . .

the other teams are just bigger and stronger. 

It's tough!



Join AJ and his teammates, Cody and Latrell, and the Bunnies on their triumphant footy journey from being the competition underdogs to unlikely winners, with a little help from some friends - especially a wise and confident Crow!
