"The Indigenous Literacy Day’s theme for 2024 is Be A Proud Voice For Country. It is an opportunity to showcase deep and diverse ways in which children connect to Country. Yaltji Ngayuku Papa? (Where’s My Dog?) is a stunning picture storybook that showcases the Tjuntjuntjara Remote Community School in Western Australia. You get to share in all of the places on Country that the students share proudly, where they play and learn, while looking for their lost dog. Also helping your students connect to Country with pride to help create a better world where pride and wellbeing are at the centre of their everything."  ‑ Shelley Ware.
