Description: Mbabaram creation stories tell how the land, sky, and waterways came to be. They share important lessons about culture, identity, and working together in the tribe.

This first story is about Kangaroo and Emu, who were given the special task of making the first boomerang. Their actions helped create day and night, and the four directions.

The story was passed down to Nessa by her father, Colin Alec Stevens (Alick Chalk), who lived traditionally in Aboriginal camps in North Queensland from 1901 to 1916. These stories are still a vital part of Mbabaram culture and language, and Nessa now shares them with others.

This book includes fun, simple science activities for young children, like using the sun to tell time, understand directions, and always know where you are, with cute illustrations to make learning fun.
