I don't know why there's no description of the book on Goodreads (or Amazon), but its description on the publisher's site is pretty clear, "Aggie the emu is feeling down. Tall and strange looking, she doesn’t look much like the other birds in the Outback. She’s convinced herself that life would be better if she had four legs rather than two, and was as powerful as a buffalo... maybe she could be a buffalemu? Her friends aren’t so sure. But like all of life’s challenges, it'll only be solved with a good think, a good talk, and a walk." In other words, it's a personal story brought to life, about an emu on a journey of self discovery in the Australian Outback!
Written by a Melbourne-based author (with what look like mixed-media illustrations by Nandina Vines), The Buffalemu features a full cast of worn, torn, scruffy, and delightfully-skinny Australian animals... all speaking fun Aussie lingo in a way that evokes a strong sense of atmosphere and place, guaranteed to engage and excite the eager minds of imaginative young readers while putting them in touch with their own unique qualities!
