Our Yarning Collection by Library for All

BY LIBRARY FOR ALL


The Our Yarning collection by Library For All, brings you the best in children’s books written by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander authors.
 

These stories; collected from across Australia, are beautiful, culturally relevant books for First Nations children, as well as engaging stories for all children to learn about Aboriginal culture and history.

With Our Yarning, children can engage in levelled books full of tales of culture, community, the environment, health, recreation and more! From the sounds of the bush, to sports you can play, there’s something for all children to get excited about and learn from.

All proceeds from the sales of these books are invested back into Our Yarning and Library For All programs. Library For All supports global literacy by ensuring those least served by formal education have access to engaging and culturally relevant books.

You can see books from Library For All here, including a collection of Social and Emotional Learning books, full of diverse, relatable stories about self-awareness, resilience, relationship building and social skills.
