Description

This is our Sydney, the brightest and best of it,
North to the south to the east and the west of it.
Bats and cicadas, lawn bowls and the zoo,
This is our town. Let us share it with you.

A playful and vibrantly illustrated picture book that celebrates Sydney in all its diversity from A to Z.

We're thrilled to see that Alphabetical Sydney has been shortlisted for an Australian Book Industry Award

'This instant classic should be on the bookshelf of every Sydney child.' - Delia Falconer
