Set in the Geraldton area of Western Australia, Joanne Crawford’s text is simple and yet profound. It’s written in such a way that makes you feel you’ve been there; that you’ve experienced the memories for yourself.
Visually Kerry Ann Jordinson exquisitely portrays the landscape through illustration. Using soft pastel and a stunning colour pallet, children will appreciate each illustration as the story unfolds.
I Remember encourages children to stop and take in the details; to breathe in the smells; to listen to the sounds, and to begin to understand that it’s the simple things in life that are the most meaningful and leave a lasting impression that can be remembered for a lifetime.
I Remember is a celebration of Australian traditions, the importance of story telling, and of childhood and is sure to enjoyed read after read.
