This book explores how Australian Indigenous people’s histories and cultures are deployed, represented and transmitted in post-Mabo children’s literature authored by both Indigenous and non-Indigenous writers. The author examines how this literature acts as a form of resistance and helps to transform cultural relations in Australian society.
