This beautifully illustrated story, from the Yuin people of Wallaga Lake, in New South Wales, tells the tale of Bangu the Flying Fox, and the lesson she learns about sticking by her friends. With the permission of the elders of Wallaga Lake, their people's story is retold in this form so that children everywhere can share it and learn from it.
