Critiques
Extremely interesting stories of Australian Aborigines





Cheryl Stewart
This book really changed my understanding of early English Australia and the culture of the indigenous people. I had thought of them as having simple or no culture, but they did have a complex and interesting culture before all was taken from them. I also enjoyed learning about the flora and fauna and how it was used. There are several readers. All of the readers are good.
Wonderful
