🌿✨ Exciting news to start 2026! ✨🌿 I’m beyond thrilled to share the cover reveal of my brand new Bush Tukka Guide for Kids — a fun and educational journey into Australia’s native plants and bush foods! This incredible project has been a true labour of love, and I can’t wait for young explorers, teachers (and their families!) to discover the amazing flavours and stories of our land. The book will be available at the end of January to early February, so be quick to pre-order or buy your first copies — I know they’ll go fast! A massive thank you goes out to the amazing team at Hardie Grant for all their hard work and support in bringing this vision to life. Here’s to an exciting year ahead filled with learning, culture, and connection to Country 🌏💚#BushTukkaGuide #bushtukkaguideforkids #bushtukkawoman #australianeducationaldepartments #KidsBookLaunch HardieGrant AustralianBushFoods NewRelease2026 Aboriginalauthor
