Bridget Farmer - Kookaburra Kookaburra

A lyrical journey through a day of Australian birdlife.

Kookaburra Kookaburra begins with the morning call of the kookaburra and ends with a goodnight from the boobook owl. Along the way, readers are introduced to 12 of Australia’s most iconic birds, each accompanied by a short rhyme and a linoprinted illustration.

Ideal for children aged 2-8, this book encourages engagement with the natural world through rhythm, recognition, and visual storytelling. A gentle introduction to native bird species and the art of noticing.

At the back, you’ll find a brief description of each bird featured.

Illustrated using bold linoprint techniques, printed on recycled stock and self-published under Bridget’s Black Cockatoo Books label.
