'Well, the work in the yards is long and it's hard...'

Following on the success of their 'Not Far to Go Now, ' husband and wife team Jet and Katie Jones have created another charmingly illustrated children's book about life on a cattle station in Australia.

This time, they attack the subject of the cattle yards:

'There's drafting and branding,

The work is demanding,

We'll spray 'em for lice and for ticks..'

Bush children will recognise themselves, and urban children will be amazed by this different lifestyle.
