AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Satirical account of the introduction of cane toads to Australia, and the subsequent environmental destruction wrought. The toads are anthropomorphised as revolutionaries and the story of their journey to, and spread around, Australia is told in a narrative style. It is not specifically for children, with some more adult concepts raised.
