I just kept going using my English the way I thought/learned...

Yes... there'll be lots of pictures, and the language will be simple
I like it. You're wrong when you say you're not creative. I already feel engaged just from reading this thread. That's pretty funny about the Onion and the snake and it illustrates what was happening at that time. That's the perfect voice for this. And I'm a dummy, I don't have the slightest grounding for a story about Swedes who went to Australia to live. That in itself is interesting.

I say go for it. You already have one reader right here!

edit: I didn't notice until now that this is a month old. Book's probably written by now!
