Thrift store discovery.  What an eye-opener.  So interesting to learn how (at least some, at least a couple of decades ago) Australian aboriginal people lived.  In town, before they leave, everything seems pretty much like life in many small towns across the world.  But in the bush, boy do they have fun reliving a bit of their traditional culture.  The illustrations are vibrant, colorful, perfectly apt.  I'd recommend this more highly, but I must admit that vegetarians and animal-lovers will have real trouble with the main events & ideas of this story.… (mais)

Going for Oysters follows the book Pigs and Honey; it shows a bit of the way of life for the people of Aurukun on their own land. A young girl gets to go with some of her family up the Thuukal river in search of oysters. Through the telling of their two day journey you are given a small window into the connections and customs within a family of the Aurukun people.
