このオーディオブックについて

A kid finds a lost 'thing' on the beach where he's scavenging for his bottle top collection. The thing is a large, freakish creature but no-one else really notices it - it's simply not a part of their familiar day-to-day reality. So the kid takes it upon himself to try to find where the lost thing belongs.

In school he became known as the 'good drawer' which partly compensated for always being the shortest kid in every class. Shaun has won many awards for his picture books and illustration including: the NSW Premier's Literary Award for The Arrival and The Red Tree; the Ditmar Award for Best Artwork for The Lost Thing; and the World Fantasy Award for Best Artist.
