Come Home Bigibila

This is a new book. Condition: Brand New.

Bigibila was born on a night when Gawarrgay, the dark emu, was high in the sky.
The air tasted of native lime and was full of the sound of animal songs.
This is my Country, Bigibila thought. My place.

But when Bigibila finds herself far from her Country - how will she ever find her way back?

With Gamilaraay words seamlessly woven into the text, Australian parents will love reading Bigibila's story to their children, which explores our connection to family and place.

Corey Tutt is the founder of DeadlyScience and bestselling author of The First Scientists. Irma Gold is an award-winning author of books for children and adults. Together, they've created this gorgeous story with a facts section at the back that's all about Bigibila (echidnas).

- Learning more about a favourite Australian animal, the echidna.
- Engaging with First Nations culture in way that's suitable for toddlers, preschoolers and primary school students.
