"The ebook provides an authentic means for our students to use their Indigenous language skills. Students are able to hear the Kuku Yalanji language and practise their own language skills through a variety of interactive activities that are highly appealing to young children. The ebook tells one of the most significant stories of our Iocal Indigenous people through beautiful and authentic Indigenous artwork. We look forward to incorporating this valuable resource into our school's Indigenous language program."
