Hardback small octavo, no jacket, good plus condition, pictorial covers, colour drawings, rear endpapers illustrated, corner tips covers & spine ends little scuffed, covers slightly rubbed, spine little faded, light foxing inside front cover & title page. 29 pp. This Aboriginal legend for children, told by Pat Edwards, is about long ago when there was only the moon and stars to give light. One day when a Brolga became angry she stole an emu's egg and threw it away. It burst and set fire to some sticks, and this became what we now know as the Sun. A kookaburra named Gougourgahgah, saved the light by laughing when the morning star starts to fade. This school reader contains Iconic illustrations by Walter Stackpool.
