ABBEY'S BOOKSELLER PICKS ----- An ABC with a difference, each letter is given a double page spread; one side has a portrait incorporating the letter, the facing page a short sentence summing up the Australian personality. For example, A is for Adam Goodes and the A (in red and white stripes) is his body; or T is for Tim Flannery and the T is his polo shirt - all quite clever graphic designs and easily recognised. The mix of male and female characters also includes indigenous and migrant Australians, scientists and politicians, musicians and journalists, sportspeople and artists - mostly from the 20th century. At the back are thumbnail biographical details, to expand on the accompanying text. Colourful and fun. Lindy Jones
