When walking on Country, what comes to your mind? If you spend some time looking, what will you find?

With bright illustrations created by women and children from Napranum Early Childhood Centre in Far North Queensland, We Look, We Find is a delightful story about the importance of being on Country and the animals that can be found on the land.

Written by women and children from Napranum Community in Far North Queensland, in English with Thanynakwith words and a glossary.

A lovely gift for early readers, with a QR code on the back cover allowing readers to listen along to the story.

The first time a children's picture book featuring Thanynakwith language has ever been published commercially.
