Learning Country

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.
