This year’s Book Week theme, "Reading is Magic," captures the boundless power of stories to transport us to new worlds, broaden our horizons, and ignite our imaginations. But there’s a special kind of magic in stories that are grounded in our rich cultural heritage and wisdom.
First Nations books are more than just stories; they are living vessels of culture, language, and tradition. They offer our unique perspectives on the world, connecting readers to the land, the sky, and the seas in ways that are deeply rooted in tens of thousands of years of knowledge and storytelling.
As we celebrate Book Week this year, let's shine a spotlight on the incredible contributions of First Nations authors, illustrators, and storytellers. Their works are a testament to the resilience, creativity, and enduring spirit of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures. These books not only entertain but also educate, offering readers of all ages the opportunity to engage with the world through the eyes of Australia’s First Peoples.
