Publisher's Note Here is a wonderful new pop-up version of My Grandma lived in Gooligulch, Graeme Base's terrific tale set in the Australian outback and filled with koalas, wombats, bandicoots, kookaburras, and other peculiarly Australian wildlife. Children will be delighted as Grandma rides atop a kangaroo, flies through the air in the mouth of a pelican, and pops up from the ocean waves. Fans of the original book will enjoy the clever pop-ups as Base's story is brought to three dimensional life.

Industry Reviews Graeme Base gives an old favorite new life with the abridged, pop-up version of My Grandma Lived in Gooligulch. Pelicans flap their cardboard wings while wombats, bandicoots and Australian wildlife pose in pictures. Missing from this adaptation, however, is the key naming the animals in the illustrations (Abrams, $19.95, 18p, all ages ISBN 0-8109-4288-7 Dec.). Lopate
