About

Not since Edward the Emu (and its sequel Edwina the Emu) has Rod Clement created such beautifully detailed and exuberant artwork

'I want to dance NOW,
I want to flap, kick and jump!'

'Well, don't jump on me!'
said a small brown lump.

Olga the brolga is in a terrible mood. She desperately wants to dance -- but no one will dance with her. Her parents have other things to do, Ellie the crocodile doesn't feel like jumping around, and Joanna Jacana only wants to sleep. As for Lilly the long-neck, well, she's a bit grumpy, too!

So Olga decides to dance by herself; and when she does, something absolutely wonderful happens...

A rhyming story with nice images and a reminder to do what you love, even if others won't join you.
