Fire Truck Santa

At Christmas time all over Australia - from the bush to the 'burbs - Santa arrives on the back of the fire truck! This boisterous picture book celebrates a much-loved Aussie tradition.


A Christmas tradition, all round this land,

from the city to the country, from the bush to the sand,

in a shiny red truck instead of a sleigh,

Santa sets out on his jolly old way.


But this fire truck has seen better days. It creaks and rattles and groans as Santa makes his rounds.

It will take a miracle to get through Christmas Eve ... 


With beautiful illustrations by Nathaniel Eckstrom, this is an energetic and delightful celebration of a wonderful Aussie tradition.
