Market Day

When a girl is given a coin to spend at the market; she thinks carefully about what to buy. She is tempted by the towering stacks of fruit; spinning rides and glass jars filled with sweets.

But it isn't until a stranger gives something to her; without expecting anything in return; that she knows exactly what to do with her coin.

A story brimming with joy; generosity and magic from two of Australia's beloved picture book creators. Carrie Gallasch's beautiful text evokes the warmth and community of the market; while Hannah Sommerville brings this glorious world to life with rich colour and texture.
