Tales Of My Grandmothers Dreamtime by Nauira

ISBN: 9316435007431 PUBLISHER: Bartel Publications FORMAT: Hardback PAGES: 44 PUBLICATION DATE: 2000

DESCRIPTION: Authentic Aboriginal fables as told by the author's grandmother. Seventeen authentic Aboriginal fables are included in this collection. Brilliantly illustrated using modern media techniques, yet retaining a sense of Aboriginality, each story conveys a message to consider. Engaging to read, valuable for Indigenous studies, this book also exhibits fine examples of contemporary Aboriginal art. Naiura records and illustrates Grandmother's oral stories. A foreword, Dreamtime symbols and their meanings, explains the spiritual meaning of the art and the interpretation of some common symbols. Most of the stories focus on lessons to be learnt from either positive or negative human traits. For example, generosity, patience, selflessness and hope are valued, but lying, disobedience, jealousy, defiance and greed are rejected. Age 4 - 7
