"Campfire Dreaming Dreaming Series - Book 1 " By Leesa Smith, Debbie Taylor (Illustrator)
Each night, Henry sits beside the campfire, listening closely as his grandfather shares stories from the Dreaming. He wonders when it will be his turn to pass on this knowledge. One night, lulled by the warmth of the fire and the rhythm of the tale, Henry slips into a vivid dream of his own.
In his dream, he journeys through Country – meeting a giant water snake in the river, tasting bush tucker, and riding a kangaroo across the desert. Along the way, Henry begins to understand his place in the story and the strength of his connection to culture.
Campfire Dreaming is a powerful reflection on Country, kinship and cultural inheritance. It honours the importance of oral storytelling and reminds us that everyone has their own story to tell when the time is right.
