The aftermath of a bushfire sends the falcons in search of a new home. After a long journey, they encounter the strange structures of the city – a canyon of skyscrapers, the rowing team creature of many legs, strange animals called children who swing and rock and squeal, and peculiar honking creatures with wheels. Illustrations combine photo like images with realistic drawings to overlap the world of nature with urban life. Additional information is provided to explain the background of two falcons that inhabit Brisbane. The unique portrayal of the bird’s eye view of both worlds will effectively support the Stage 2 Connected Outcomes Group (COGs) (A): Local environments, and demonstrate effective narrative. J. Hawkes
