Hairy Holes
Brenton E. McKenna
Ever wonder about the shadows lurking in the bush at night?
Yawuru creator Brenton E McKenna brings you a superb storytelling experience of the outback supernatural, in his new black-and-white graphic novel, Hairy Holes.
Begley and Redley Hole are two hairy hole people living ordinary lives in the bush – that is until their world is lifted up and tossed on its rear when a lost tourist named Joplin stumbles upon them with promises of friendship and help to search for their parents.
McKenna has a gift for comedy...Each of his creatures, the hairy men, the snakes, koalas, kangaroos and wild bulls are drawn with gusto…
Children will enjoy the slapstick humour and at times ‘rude’ comments...for reluctant readers with a sense of humour this book will hold great appeal.
