"Family" By Aunty Fay Muir, Sue Lawson & Jasmine Seymour

Family, heart and home. Yarning old people. Endless sky.

Family is a gentle and powerful celebration of what family means—beyond bloodlines and biology. With lyrical simplicity and stunning illustrations, this picture book explores family as connection: to each other, to Country, to story and song. It reminds us that family is found in love, care, and culture.

Part of the Our Place series, Family encourages young readers to think deeply about belonging and relationships, and how we learn to live together through story and shared experience.

Educators have embraced Family as a meaningful tool to introduce Aboriginal culture through symbols and storytelling—helping children, even in preverbal stages, to build cultural understanding and shared knowledge through story, art, and connection.
