Description
This book is based on a story told by David Mowaljarlai of the Ngarinyin people to Aboriginal children living in the Kimberly, Western Australia. The illustrations are adapted from their paintings of the story. David Mowaljarlai said, "We want our children to see the daylight and the sun go down on our land, the home of the Dreamtime, and to live there to their old age and really understand their culture."
