ANONYMOUS JONES'
AUSTRALIAN EMIGRATION NEWSLETTER #23
BOOK REVIEW, TOO
Being as it was that our last book review (AJAEN #20) has
elicited such resounding praise from the newsletter media
for its brilliantly perceptive analysis of a modern classic,
we here at the Anonymous Jones Headquarters have undertaken
a comprehensive cursory search of our extensive reference
library and have unearthed another slender volume which must
be considered required reading for any potential Australian
Emigrant. As you may have guessed, we are speaking of that
entertaining work written and illustrated by the impresario
Mercer Mayer, and published by Four Winds Press, entitled
WHAT DO YOU DO WITH A KANGAROO? The assertive heroine of
the book is attacked in her bedroom, in reverse order, by a
camel, moose, llama, opossum, tiger, raccoon, and, yes, a
kangaroo. Her tragic efforts to repel these assaults, as
told in her own poignant words, "You throw them all out,
that's what you do!", outlines the indomitable spirit of
those valiant survivors of the Australian Menagerie and
should serve both as guide and raw inspiration for all of
you now planning for a life in the down-under.
