Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Ngarta and Jukuna lived in the Great Sandy Desert. They traversed country according to the seasons, just as the Walmajarri people had done for thousands of years. But it was a time of change. Desert people who had lived with little knowledge of European settlement were now moving onto cattle stations. Those left behind were vulnerable and faced unimaginable challenges. In 1961, when Jukuna leaves with her new husband, young Ngarta remains with a group of women and children. Tragedy strikes and Ngarta is forced to travel alone. Her survival depends on cunning and courage as she is pursued by two murderers in a vast unforgiving landscape. Jukuna's rich account may be the first autobiography written in an Aboriginal language. Presented in English and Walmajarri, her determination to see her language written has made her one of our most valued authors. 143 pages.

Softcover. Zustand: Near Fine. CHILDREN'S BOOKS WEST AUSTRALIANA ABORIGINAL Age range 8-12 The Girl from the Great Sandy Desert is the charming account of the life of Mana, a young Walmajarri girl, and her family, in the desert country of north-west Australia. Simultaneously delightful tales of children growing up and a social and cultural history of a way of life, Mona Chuguna's semi-autobiographical stories are set before European settlement impacted on the lives of the people of the Great Sandy Desert, and before they left their homelands. Beneath the hot blue sky, Mana is joined by her brothers, sisters and cousins, as well as her many mothers and her favourite dogs. With gentle humour, the stories depict the daily life of hunting and gathering, kinship obligations, the never-ending search for water, and the exploits of the young children. Alongside each story are cultural insights that enhance understanding of the text, making it especially valuable to educators looking for authentic material. Acclaimed Gooniyandi (Fitzroy River) artist Mervyn Street captures the subtle nuances of the stories and the Walmajarri way of life with beautiful black and white illustrations. 98 pages : illustrations, 1 map, photographs ; 21 cm #230423Walmajarri (Australian people) -- Western Australia -- Social life and customs. | Aboriginal Australians -- Western Australia -- Social life and customs. | History - Biographies - Indigenous - Autobiographies. | Walmajarri / Walmatjarri people (A66) (WA SE51-16) | Death - Mourning. | Stories and motifs - Dingoes / dogs. | Literature and stories - Juvenile. | Stories and motifs - Water sources. | Great Sandy Desert (W.A.) -- Social life and customs. | Australian Elizabeth's Bookshops have been one of Australia's premier independent book dealers since 1973.
