No Way Yirrikipayi!

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

A hungry crocodile (Yirrikipayi) goes looking for food, but everything that looks tempting seems to have a good excuse for why he wouldn't like it—'No way, Yirrikipayi, you're not eating me today.'

Written in English and Tiwi, No Way Yirrikipayi is one of the Indigenous Literacy Foundation's most popular books. The stunning illustrations combined with a cheeky rhyming text have delighted readers of all ages.

Meet the animals and learn their Tiwi names in this delightful book.

No Way Yirrikipayi began as a workshop idea and has grown into a fabulous picture book. You're going to love this funny Tiwi story with its beautiful illustrations." —Alison Lester
