1 y separately published work icon Ngurrara : A Ngarluma Story Tyson Mowarin , Sutu (illustrator), Roebourne : Big hArt , 2013 6517341 2013 single work graphic novel children's

'Although Ngurrara is an original ‘fictionalised history’, it is based on real stories from a very real place. Ngurrara means ‘belonging to country home’ in the Ngarluma language. The Ngarluma people are the traditional owners of Murujuga, also known as the Burrup Peninsula in Western Australia where the story is set. Murujuga is home to approximately one million petroglyphs (rock carvings), some of which are more than 30,000 years old. This story is about the Ngarluma people and their continued connection to their country over thousands of years.' (Source: Yijala Yala Project website)
