FINDING NOOSA – A DIARY is the story of ‘the Molloys’, Queensland’s if not Australia’s most
controversial political couple. The political impact this book will have should not be underestimated as it
has relevance for the upcoming Qld State election with many behind the scenes insights into the former
Beattie and now Bligh Labor Government.

It also contains startling revelations about many important political and social issues and politicians at all levels including Kevin Rudd, Mark Latham, Peter Beattie, Anna Bligh and the ALP machine. Also included are details of personal inside experiences of dealings
with John Howard and Mayor Bob Abbott.

This book is in part an ‘inside story’, a behind the scenes account of a number of major Qld political
issues including the Traveston Dam and Council Amalgamations. It is a political ‘MUST READ’. Among
others, the book also details startling revelations about another national icon – the Surf Life Saving
Movement.

Billy the Bandicoot and the Big Drought tells the story of the search for water by a cast of loveable native animals. Billy the Bandicoot is the lead character, driven by thirst, joined by Nellie the Numbat, Katie Koala, Paddy Pademelon and Brian the Bilby in a quest for fresh water. The book's appeal is the beautifully illustrated native animals, their quest for a goal, the local Australian topic and the timely focus on how precious fresh water bodies are.

Kerry Kelly, a Townsville artist, loves painting and children. Mother of five children and grandmother to two, Kerry has read thousands of children's books and understands the need to entertain both the child and the adult reader.

"This book evolved out of Friday morning painting sessions with two friends, Petra and Vicki." said Dr Kelly. "We decided to focus on illustrating James Patterson's story and after three years, we all had different books." Kerry finalized her book with the assistance of graphic designer, Manuela Frahm. Townsville author and biologist, Len Zell, provided advice on publication.
