Description

Take a fabulous time slip to the innocence and beauty of Tasmania in the 1960s - only five decades ago, yet revealed as an entirely different world.

'A Small Girl's 1960s Launceston' has 260+ watercolour illustrations created by author Diana Reynolds, with anecdotes depicting the observations of a curious small girl growing up in an island state still considered somewhat remote from 'mainland' Australia in the 1960s.

'A Small Girl's 1960s Launceston' encompasses not only the main cities, Launceston and Hobart, but travels the state to many beautiful places in Tassie. Local flora and fauna abound throughout the book and for children of today, incredulous at a time without the things that seem so essential now, it is the perfect antidote.

The reader will be enthralled with memories that remind them of their own childhoods, in a rare display that pleases the heart and satisfies the soul.
