Join Possum and his bush friends in this rhyming read-aloud story, perfect to share for an Aussie Christmas. From his lofty watch post, Possum is drawn to the sight of a distant tree covered in sparkling trinkets. A Christmas Tree, according to Kookaburra. So begins a quest in which Possum and his crafty crew of helpers try very hard to decorate their very own Christmas gum tree from Bowerbird' s treasure trove. But it' s not as easy as you might think!
