Possum Magic has captivated and enchanted children and adults for many years. Mem Fox's lovable characters, little Hush and Grandma Poss, and Julie Vivas' exquisite illustrations weave a story of pure magic. Continuously in print since it was first published in 1983, Possum Magic has been embraced as a timeless Australian tale and as Australia's most-loved children's picture book. This edition was released in 2004 to celebrate the book's 21st birthday. Julie has retouched and recoloured her illustrations, so that the images are now truer to the original artwork than ever before. The book itself has been redesigned and completely reset.
