This book gives an interpretation first hand of what life for the aboriginies was like under the pressure of white society. Also, it tells its readers about the Aboriginies' explainations for how the world was created and what different things like the Southern Cross are. Have some respect.
Beautifully illustrated folk tales of aboriginal life. The writing gives you a feeling that you are sitting around a relative's table listening to stories that teach and inspire. I use this book in my art class to teach about aboriginal art and illustrating a Dreamtime tale. Students love it.
While Oodgeroo's stories can be interesting, it's Bronwyn Bancroft's wonderful illustrations that make this book a must for the bookshelf.I never get tired of looking at these beautiful pictures.A treasure for young and old alike.
