Bush and Beyond: Stories from Country
Publisher: Fremantle Press
Published: April 2018
Genre: Children's, Fiction
These beautifully narrated and uniquely Western Australian stories have universal appeal. Genuine and heartfelt, they represent an opportunity to hear from voices not often heard. Readers will find reflections on culture distinctive to Aboriginal people in Western Australia, as well as common experiences: dealing with siblings, special times with grandparents, and toasting marshmallows. Brimming with humour and charm, Bush and Beyond captures a deep connection with natural surroundings and introduces Nyungar words relating to Western Australian wildlife. A great book for young readers, or families to share – mooditj! (good!)
