Learning Country : A First Nations Journey Around Australia's Traditional Place Names

A highly designed, colourful picture book aimed at celebrating traditional names of well-known Australian places such as Gadigal (Sydney) and Lunawuni (Bruny Island), from a popular breakthrough Indigenous artist. I wanted to travel this place to hear some of its old stories ... to learn. Laugh joyfully like a kookaburra in Canberra. Watch your toes turn red in Rubibi. And walk soft under the bunya pines in Meeanjin. From Gudanji/Wakaja artist Ryhia Dank comes Learning Country, a vibrant and contemporary picture book that celebrates the traditional names of well-known Australian places.
