About the book
Ms. Frizzle and the kids go all out in the outback. Catch up on all the amazing facts about the animals Down Under! Hi, I'm Dorothy Ann. Ms. Frizzle's class ended up on the other side of the world when we went searching for the cackling kookaburra. It was a wild walk-about to Australia. We had a hopping good time racing a herd of kangaroos and survived a run-in with the terrible Tasmanian devil. Things got pretty hairy in the outback, but there's never been a field trip quite like the Expedition Down Under.
