CBCA Book of the Year Awards – Highlighted Book of the Week

Goodjagah, little one, walk with me ... I want to tell you our Dreaming as the Elders told it to me.

‘Our Dreaming’ is a stunning book that has been shortlisted for the ‘Picture Book of the Year’ category in the CBCA Book of the Year awards. With text by Kirli Saunders and illustrations by Dub Leffler the story follows the slow and deliberate journey of an Echidna pup as it discovers and develops an understanding and respect of Indigenous culture, history, language and Dreaming. Indigenous words are integrated seamlessly into the English text to create this bilingual cultural celebration. Watch a sneak peek of the book being read by author Kirli Saunders
