Little Willy Wagtail 'Junuy Ganyjarr-Ganyjarr' for Miss Mollie

The Publisher's Note: The Journey of Little Willy Wagtail 'Junuy Ganyjarr-Ganyjarr' Aboriginal Artwork - The Tree of Life

Kerrie-Rae is a firm believer that culture and identity are important from early childhood. Her artwork is an expression of her life's journey, while maintaining a strong respect for ancestry and place. The Tree of Life by Kerrie-Rae Ellis is a testament to this belief.

The Miss Mollie books have incorporated Gumbaynggirr language into their storytelling to strengthen cultural ties. In these stories, we are introduced to the lives of Mollie, Silky, Sasha, Harry, and Simone, who reside in an older-style home with white linen and polished hardwood floors, where mornings are filled with sunshine.

"Come on, let's get dressed!" the children exclaim as they venture into the closet, searching for their play clothes and eagerly anticipating the opportunity to go outside and play. The joy of trying on their mother's shoes adds to the excitement of the everyday routine.
