GREAT CHRISTMAS GIFT IDEA
As part of Gympie’s 150 year birthday celebration, the LKDO team recorded stories from 118 Gympie locals of their life as a child when they were twelve year’s old or younger. 46 children added drawings and stories from today. The life of a child of yesteryear was vastly different to that of today.
There are 224 pages of sad, funny, hard and downright politically incorrect and unsafe stories with tom foolery that we definitely do not recommend for today’s children.
It’s our history and boy, doesn’t it make a good read! It’s real Gympie Gold. $25 per book.
Published with funding assistance from the Gympie Regional Council through the Community Assistance Grants Program.
