'Tie Me Kangaroo Down, Sport was a hit song in the 1960s for Rolf Harris in Australia, Britain, Canada and the United States, and remains strong in the memories of all who have heard it then and since. Now, with this self-illustrated hardback book, Rolf brings the story to a new generation. Featuring Rolf's distinctive painting style, the book will appeal to readers old and young. Those familiar with the song will sing along as they read, while readers new to the story will delight in the story detailing the exploits of the 'old Australian stockman lying, dying' and his menagerie of iconic Aussie animals.'
