From the big heart of beloved NRL Broncos legend Sam Thaiday comes this wonderful rhyming picture book showcasing Torres Strait Islander storytelling and the importance of sharing, brought to life by Tori-Jay Mordey's stunning illustrations.

Stories are our history
Passed on down the line
But sometimes they get lost
And jumbled over time

This story is about the fish
In all their scaly tones -
The story of the fish
And how they got their bones

Perfect for:
- Reading aloud with little ones
- Introducing the power of storytelling
