"Heart-wrenching and unflinching, this antholgy offers us a deep dive into the experience of a double betrayal; shock, disbelief, rage, mourning... cherishing and recovery.
Anna Foletta's trust in nature and friendships sings out between the pages and the illustrations add an extra something special.
Highly recommended!!"

I respectfully recognise and acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land in which this book and my writing takes place. I pay my respects to the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin nation, who are the custodians of the land where I live and work, and their Elders past, present and emerging.
I am committed to honouring Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people's unique cultural and spiritual relationships to the land, waters and seas and their rich contribution to society.
It always was, and always will be Aboriginal land.
