Description

This title is suitable for ages 4 to 8 years. Yelling and shouting, the children chased each other in and out of the water...They didn't realise that they were sharing the water with a tired old Wunambi. Find out what happens when his rest is disturbed. Wunambi the water snake roamed the land when the earth was young creating big tracks that became the rivers and creeks. He is still an important part of Aboriginal life today.
