Bibliography: p. 217.
"In this book we tell the Wadjiginy, Emmiyangal and Mendheyangal story of our plants and animals. We have worked on this book for a long time, and before us our elders passed on knowledge of country for thousands of generations. We have made this book from our own plant and animal knowledge to keep it strong, and to allow the next generations to learn it, understand it and use it. We want the children, the rangers, future elders and all our countrymen to be able to learn about their culture and to look after it forever." -- back cover.
