Ballaralphabet is stunning, packed with joy and a beautiful homage to Ballarat! Locals will recognise the quirks of home, while visitors will marvel at all that the town has to offer. Wonderfully written and exceptionally illustrated!” – Anna B

Eureka! An absolute delight! Ballaralphabet is the love child of a rainbow unicorn mixed in with an encyclopedia. The author brings a joyfulness with fun facts and jokes that hold attention. The illustrations are vibrant and tinted with that nostalgic warmth we remember so fondly from our youth. From the little ghosts ice-skating on Sturt Street to the starlit sky of the Universe, children are going to love this book! If you are looking to teach your children a little bit about sleepy Ballarat, from culture to history, to the wonders of Lake Wendouree, definitely snag yourself a copy of Ballaralphabet today. If you’re looking for a non-basic souvenir from your travels, don’t look past this A-Z romp around the gold rush capital of Australia.” — Stef T
