Dry Grass Whispering
There's not a prettier sound in the world... Dry Grass Whispering. A family story from a born story teller, warm and poignant with a fine sense of the ridiculous a book to remember. Norah's whisperings in the grass have always come from the land, her family and her God... she has endured drought and flood, as a child and mother. Readers from the outback will need only change the property names and imagine different roads, city folk will be introduced to a new world. The risks of survival enlarged through the prism of distance.

Rodeo Kids
This is a picture book about outback kids who enjoy the rodeo. A Rodeo is a competition of combined skill between animal and rider.

So at the end of the rodeo the work doesn’t stop. The contractors now have to feed their animals, the bulls, horses, calves and steers. These animals are just like their kids, and are treated with lots of love and respect; they will all have some grain and fresh hay for dinner. There’s only respect given to these animal athletes; they are family.
