Before his 30 years of teaching he worked in the mining industry in Tennant Creek and Jabiru in the Northern Territory and Moomba in far north South Australia.

This picture book is about how we respond to hardship brought about by one of the worst droughts in the last one hundred years. Read and be Inspired! In Australia’s Outback, the land is dry and dusty. The rainclouds are few and far between. The land suffers, as do the crops, so to the people on the land. It’s time to make a change to save the farms, but who will answer the “call to arms”? Who will start the rain? The Outback is drought country. It’s where farmers and their families in the “food belt” struggle with little or no rain. It’s where livestock, grain, and other food crops are grown to feed the population of Australia. When there’s no rain, there’s no food. The farmers need a hand to survive the “great dry.” Start the Rain is about how we respond to hardship. The droughts of the past 100 years have impacted many countries around the world. Climate change is prolonging the droughts, making life impossible for farmers. We live on a planet that needs our help. We live with people who need help. As human beings, we are at our best when we come together, roll up our sleeves, and support each other. Together, we can start the rain.
