A Sometimes River: The Story of a Kangaroo is a beautifully crafted Australian nature story that chronicles the life of a kangaroo through the lens of the breathtaking Australian bush. With paintings and drawings by the celebrated artist Clifton Pugh and text by Pam Blashki, this work brings the rugged, sun-drenched landscapes of Australia vividly to life, presenting a rare and intimate portrait of one of the continent's most iconic animals as it navigates the rhythms of the wild. The narrative is at once gentle and evocative, making it accessible to readers of all ages while retaining a depth that resonates long after the final page. As the third installment following Death of a Wombat and Dingo King, this volume continues a beloved series that sits at the intersection of fine art and natural storytelling. Pugh's luminous visual artistry — recognised across Australia and beyond — elevates the work far above a simple animal tale, transforming it into a meditation on the fragility and resilience of native wildlife. Together, Pugh and Blashki have crafted a tribute to the Australian wilderness that will leave readers yearning to wander its ancient, sunlit riverbanks.
