Dirt by Sea

Explore our wonderful coastline and the joy of a family road-trip with Dad and Daisy!
Featuring 40 pages of extraordinary comic-style illustrations; this unique picture book will have you dreaming of a holiday around Australia or maybe even planning a van life with the help of the journey map in the endpapers.
The hugely popular creators of Why I Love Footy and Why I Love Summer are back together with a moving family story that is also a true celebration of what we love most about the Australian landscape; family holidays and classic Kombi vans.





Daisy lives in inland Australia with her dad and her grandparents. It's home; and she loves the red dirt land around her. But when her dad realises that she's never seen the beach and thinks the Australian anthem is about a country 'dirt by sea'; he sets off to show her the ocean in a once-in-a-lifetime father-daughter trip along the Australian coast; inspired by the first holiday he took with Daisy's mum.
Along the way they will learn about Australia and much; much more . . .
