Four wonderful traditional teaching stories of the Wongutha people are collected together here for the first time:
Barn Barn Barlala
The Kangaroos Who Wanted to be People
How Crows Became Black

First published as individual titles in 1992, these stories were seen as ground-breaking publications, presenting traditional Indigenous stories in a bi-lingual text. Sales of the individual titles now exceed 26,000 copies each.
Updated with a vibrant new design, the stories are still as fresh and appealing as ever. The collected work contains a map, explanatory note and a simple pronunciation guide for the Wongutha words used in the text.
