The Cave Painters

Description

The Cave Painters is a picture book set in The Cape York Peninsula (as are all of Percy Trezise’s books) following the journey of an Aboriginal family from the Bullanji clan going home to visit the mother’s clan in the desert. The family take gifts for their relatives and after traveling many days they arrive at their mother’s people’s place where they are joyously welcomed. Whilst there the children visit the caves to see the different pictures and are taught the clans stories.
