Karrkin: My Body

Created and translated into Mangala by Maureen Yanawana with the families of La Grange KindiLink. Illustrated by children from La Grange Remote Community School. Photographs by Wayne Quilliam. 

This bilingual edition – in Mangala and English - introduces non-Indigenous Australians to one of the five languages spoken at Bidyadanga (La Grange). The illustrations by and photographs of the students from La Grange KindiLink and Remote Community School reveal the joy the students felt in making this board book. It’s a bright, beautiful and fun board book that is perfect for the youngest readers to learn the names of various parts of their body in their home language.
