{"product_id":"australian-nature-in-poetry-margot-petersen-9798986866543","title":"Australian Nature in Poetry","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis collection of poems reflects on the local wildlife I have had the pleasure of interacting with over the last fifteen years. I live in a small far northern Nsw Australian coastal village, where my home backs onto an estuarine creek and fronts onto the Pacific Ocean with just a strip of bushland separating them. I go to sleep to the sound of the ocean and wake to the sounds of the creatures that feature in my poems. I do not claim to be an expert on wildlife, and my poems are based on my observations over time and the subjects traits with which I have become most familiar. All the places I mention are real and are within a ten-minute walk except for Mt. Warning and the Tweed River, which are within a twenty-minute drive. Any of the facts I provide have been carefully researched or provided to me by a highly respected local marine biologist, whose love of nature far exceeds my own. I think adults will find them informative and children educational. He has also generously assisted me with many of my illustrations, and I am extremely grateful for this and his well-informed input. It is hoped my poems may be enjoyed by people of all ages and have included a little touch of humour in some that I think might appeal to the younger generation in particular.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Margot Petersen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 8986866544\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798986866543\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Proisle Publishing Service\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/09\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 46\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.38lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.00h x 8.50w x 0.12d","brand":"Margot Petersen","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44072602501375,"sku":"9798986866543","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2d318393-c471-496f-936f-cbf10238f158.jpg?v=1685442955","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/australian-nature-in-poetry-margot-petersen-9798986866543","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
