by Leann J Edwards
Beautifully illustrated, this is a lively and unique story about a little girl and the fun she has at her Auntie Dollo's house.
On Saturdays I visit Auntie Dollo.
'What would you like to do today?' she says. 'Do you want to help me make some feather flowers?'
A vibrant story about connecting with culture and family.
This book was produced through the Emerging Indigenous Picture Book Mentoring Project, a joint initiative between The Little Big Book Club and Allen & Unwin, assisted by the Australian Government through the Australia Council, its arts funding and advisory body.
