Morris Gleitzman has been a frozen-chicken thawer, sugar-mill rolling-stock unhooker, fashion-industry trainee, department-store Santa, TV producer, newspaper columnist, screenwriter, and finally, a children's book author. He lives in Australia.
From the Trade Paperback edition.
Limpy the cane toad continues his persistent efforts to teach humans not to hate his species. Limpy keeps dead "rellies" (relatives) stacked up in his room, much to the chagrin of his mother, who would prefer a clean room. Embarking on a heroic expedition, Limpy hops (pun intended) planes from his home in Australia to the Amazon, in search of the ancient secret of keeping the peace with humans. Remarkable encounters delight the listener--especially with the carrier pigeons, who reluctantly carry amphibian passengers but refuse to tolerate their complaints. Author Morris Gleitzman is a talented reader who has a twinkle in his voice. N.M.C. © AudioFile 2004, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
