A powerful illustrated slam poetry picture book about togetherness
and Australian and Indigenous history. This beautiful 32-page
picture book showcases the persuasive and powerful vision of unity
from award-winning indigenous creator Gregg Dreise. Passionate, yet
peaceful, Common Wealth is a compelling plea for a future of truth,
togetherness and respect for Australia's deep history. All that I'm
wishing, Is that you take a moment to listen . . . You see, I'm on
a mission, to spread unity - not division. Please note: this book
contains confronting images and strong themes. This book is not
suitable for young children From multi award-winning author and
artist, Gregg Dreise - a proud descendant of the Kamilaroi and
Euahlayi people Valuable resource for discussion about the
importance of moving forward together as a nation, with truth and
respect for Australian history and Traditional Custodians Themes:
Indigenous history, Australian history, Australia Day, Australian
anthem, unity and community Praise for Common Wealth: In Common
Wealth Dreise delivers a heartfelt exploration of Australian
history and an examination of our national anthem in the highly
readable style of slam poetry verse. The result is a compelling
look at some of our country's darkest chapters, presented in a way
that is both accessible and age-appropriate for its intended
audience. Although some tragic and distressing themes are explored
through the verse and artwork, an overriding sense of optimism
shines through as Dreise encourages all Australians to unite, to
"work together to create, negotiate and celebrate". He also asserts
that our national anthem needs a further "tweak" and calls for
changes to the flag and the date of Australia Day. Dreise's vibrant
and striking artwork complements the verse and adds to the appeal
of the book. Common Wealth is a highly recommended addition to any
classroom, as both a tool for examining Australian history and as a
call for change. Books + Publishing

A unique and gentle art-therapy-based book to help children
understand their gratitude through creativity Picturing My
Gratitude encourages children to become 'gratitude artists', using
their amazing minds to get to know and show their gratitude.
Children are asked to think about the colours, textures and shapes
that express the look and feel of gratitude to them. Children
consider and recognise how they act when they're grateful and how
they can 'speak' about gratitude through their art. At the end of
the book, children have a set of self-made resources to use again
and again when they need a reminder of their creative coping
skills. All the Colours of Me is a series of books written by Art
Psychotherapist and Mindfulness Practitioner, Anna Shepherd. The
series addresses key emotions in the life of a child through safe
and gentle creative engagement. Each books includes a guide for
adults, a glossary of key terms and further resources for
supporting children's emotional health, for age 5 and up. Contents
