For the next two weeks, we're going to be looking at books written by Australian author Mem Fox.
She's written some ripping stories, including Possum Magic and Wilfrid Gordon McDonald Partridge.
Just as you did with the Anthony Browne web quest, please send your answers to me in an email. If you can't do this for some reason, write your answers on to paper or type them into a Word document and print them out.
Good luck!
