Description
From Aboriginal writer and illustrator Ambelin Kwaymullina, How Frogmouth Found Her Home is a strikingly illustrated picture book about celebrating differences and the importance of home.
A brand new edition of a much-loved classic from First Nations creator Ambelin Kwaymullina. Frogmouth isn't like the other birds. She doesn't want to live in the trees. Frogmouth is in search of something more.
Frogmouth travels the land hunting for a new nesting place, but nothing feels right. On her way, she helps other animals find their true homes, but still she searches. Only when she meets Moon and hears his intriguing offer can she finally find her true home.
Featuring vivid illustrations, How Frogmouth Found Her Home celebrates the beauty in our differences and the joy of finding the place where you belong.
