    025 - Wurip the Fire-Bringer Chapter III
    Dec 9 2025
    Mary Grant Bruce, a renowned Australian childrens author, dedicated a year to gathering the rich tapestry of Aboriginal stories from Gippsland, a region once vibrant with the early Australians. Today, while the original tribal communities have disappeared, their descendants continue to honor their legacy. This captivating collection features 13 stories from the Gunaikurnai people, as recounted by their elders to Bruce. In her poignant preface, she reflects on the loss of these ancient tribes and their cherished legends, which encapsulate their understanding of the world—its wildlife, natural forces, celestial bodies, and the cycle of life and death. These folktales embody the very essence of a people, and it is vital that we preserve their stories for future generations to appreciate the profound history of Australia before the arrival of colonizers. (From the Preface by Mary Grant Bruce with a little help from annise)
