"Mums Elephant" By Maureen Jiphiliya, Christina Booth (Illustrator)

Mum’s Elephant is a charming, heartfelt picture book about memory, family, and the quirky treasures that hold deep emotional value.

Set in a remote desert community, author Maureen Jipiyiliya Nampijinpa O’Keefe reflects on her childhood growing up in Ali Curung in the Northern Territory. Her mother’s prized possession was her ‘elephant’, which she treated with great care and love. From real tea-parties to sleeping beside it at night, the elephant was central to many family memories.

With beautifully expressive illustrations by Christina Booth, the book gently builds a sense of mystery around the elephant's identity until the surprise ending — making it a delightful experience for children and a nostalgic journey for adult readers.

This story encourages young readers to value the simple things and remember the love and care passed down through generations.
