Barry Learns About Doors

In this deadpan slapstick picture book, a sincere outback emu discovers doors — and commits, with the full focus of a bird who has never had a hobby before, to opening every single one he can find. A doghouse that comes with him. A glass door he does not see coming. An oven that turns out to be warm. A revolving door that goes round and round. A cat flap that is the wrong size. A generous helping of bright pink paint. And one door, standing alone in the middle of the outback, that perhaps should have stayed closed.
