A very Australian story of drought and renewal, of family, of imagination and of the power of hope.

Ella lived in the red-dirt country
where the earth was as dry as old bones
and it hadn't rained
for years
and years and years.

One night, Ella dreamt of the ocean…

A captivating picture book from the award-winning author of The Keepers and the CBCA Notable illustrator of Where is Bear?

Lian Tanner

Lian Tanner has been dynamited while scuba diving and arrested while busking.

She once spent a week in the jungles of Papua New Guinea, hunting for a Japanese soldier left over from the Second World War.

She likes secrets, old bones, and animals that are not what they seem.

Nowadays she lives by the beach in southern Tasmania with a large fluffy tomcat called Harry-le-beau.

Jonathan Bentley

As a little boy, Jonathan Bentley liked football and drawing. When he was about eight years old he realised he wasn’t going to be good enough to play football for Leeds United, so he concentrated on drawing instead.

When he left school he studied at Brighton Polytechnic. Jonathan worked as a builder’s labourer and kitchen hand for many years before he became a full-time illustrator, and he worked in London and Sydney before moving to Brisbane, Australia.

Jonathan has been an Editorial Illustrator at the Courier Mail newspaper for ten years, and has illustrated books for Margaret Wild, The Wiggles and Andrew Daddo.

Jonathan likes to work with a range of materials including acrylics, oils, and line and watercolour, and he looks forward to the day when he has a big barn-like studio somewhere in the countryside.
