Description
'Sea Country' is a beautiful children’s picture book by Aunty Patsy Cameron, celebrating the stories and seasonal traditions of her family’s life on Tasmania’s Flinders Island. Through evocative text, readers are guided on when to gather wild cherries, witness the return of moon birds, and experience the scent of nautilus shells. As a descendant of the Pairebeenne Trawlwoolway clan, Aunty Patsy shares her connection to sea and Country, while Lisa Kennedy’s intricate illustrations bring these rich stories to life.
'Sky Country' is the second book from Aunty Patsy Cameron and Lisa Kennedy. It is an ancient story of creation that describes two Ancestral Beings who came down from the Milky Way to create the Trouwerner (Tasmanian) landscape. Using some traditional language, this extraordinary children’s picture book, filled with stunning illustrations, retells a captivating Ancestral memory dating back to the Ice Age – a period of time when Trouwerner was joined to the Australian mainland. Join Aunty Patsy Cameron as she generously shares the creation story of Trouwerner Country and its people.
