AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'A young girl wants to meet her Ancestors. She wants to know them, and learn from them and follow their ways. Her mother gently explains that she has already met her Ancestors, yesterday, today and tomorrow, and that they are everywhere in Country, walking close behind her. This lyrical, dual language picture book from two debut Noongar creators celebrates the beauty of Country and family.'  (Publication summary)
