Etta and the Shadow Taboo

Beschreibung

Where is theirs? And where is mine? To hurt a shadow is surely a crime. When Etta steps on Baawaa's (her sister's) shadow, she learns of the Shadow Taboo, and learns to value the personal space of others, as well as her own. Written by Gamilaraay author JM Field and illustrated by Ngarabal/Gomeroi artist Jeremy Worrall, Etta and the Shadow Taboo will invite readers to follow a Gamilaraay tradition where one must avoid stepping on the shadows of others. Shortlisted, Prime Minister's Literary Award for Children's Literature 2024 Shortlisted, CBCA Award for New Illustrator 2024 Highly Commended, Victorian Premier's Literary Award for Indigenous Writing 2024 Shortlisted, Ena Noël Award for Emerging Illustrator 2024

Jeremy Worrall is a Ngarabal/Gomeroi multimedia artist. As a young First Nations man, Jeremy specializes in First Nations multimedia, working on a range of government and private projects for community.

JM Field grew up on waterfall country, in a small town along the Great Dividing Range on Dharug land. He is, however, a Gamilaraay Guwaymadhaan mari from Moree way, where the red sand meets the black soil. He did his undergraduate studies at the University of Sydney in mathematics and French literature, followed by a doctorate in Mathematical Biology at Balliol College at the University of Oxford.
