Mallee Sky
A poignant picture book captures the impact of drought and climate change in the Mallee region.
A very poetic text describing a desert landscape (the Mallee) in drought. Known as 'Nowie' by its indigenous inhabitants, the land's fiery sunsets reveal the harsh realities of drought and the promise of rain. Author Jodi Toering's evocative prose, complemented by Tannya Harricks' rich oil paintings, brings this landscape to life
The effect on the physical landscape, the crops, the people, and then the changes when the rains come. In essence the book is about the effects of climate change.
