'Our history is full of stories about hairy people, furry people, yowies, bunyips and monster apes. But this is the story about the hairy holes. The bush judges who kept everything in balance. Until the new people came.'

Ever wonder about the shadows lurking in the bush at night?

Yawuru creator Brenton E. McKenna brings you a superb storytelling experience of the outback supernatural in his new black-and-white graphic novel, Hairy Holes.

Begley and Redley Hole are two hairy hole people living ordinary lives in the bush—until their world is turned upside down when a lost tourist named Joplin stumbles upon them with promises of friendship and help to search for their parents.

Featuring some of Australia's toughest animals, suspiciously hairy holes in the desert, and a crash course on the wonderful world of the internet, this hilarious graphic novel will crack you up and take you on a 'kray-zay' ride—one the whole family will enjoy, hairy or otherwise.
