This illustrated volume brings together two of A. B. 'Banjo' Paterson's humorous narrative poems, capturing the characters, speech and comic mishaps of Australian bush life. In The Man from Ironbark, a visitor's encounter with a city barber produces a memorable misunderstanding; in A Bush Christening, an attempt to give a bush youngster a proper name takes an unexpected turn. Quentin Hole's illustrations accompany Paterson's lively rhythms and storytelling, making the poems accessible for reading aloud as well as enjoying on the page. A playful introduction to two enduring pieces of Australian verse.
