"Stand Proud" By Nicho Hynes, Marlee Silva, Blak Douglas (Illustrator)
$19.99 AUD
The inspiring story of rugby league star Nicho Hynes, who grew up to find his passion when he found his people.
A beautiful and moving picture book for every young reader who has ever attended a Harmony Day celebration and grappled with questions of identity, family and home.
As a kid, Nicho knows a few things to be true.
Everyone calls him Nicho, instead of 'Nicholas'.
He loves the sport of rugby league.
And he is Aboriginal - but he hasn't always known what that means.
Then one day at school, Nicho sees his friend covered in white paint and practising a special dance.
Nicho asks him to teach him the dance too . . . and that's when everything changes.
Illustrated by Blak Douglas, winner of the Archibald Prize in 2022.
