emma_in_dream2.43 Narelle McRobbie, Who's that Jumbum in the Log? (1996), illustrated by Grace Fielding
It's a Magabala Book, so you know it will be a good quality picture book. It is the story of a witchetty grub who has to move out of her log and find a new home.
I thought, frankly, my daughter might be a bit put off by the illustrations of the two central characters (both puffy white grubs) but she liked the book.
The book was written by Narelle McRobbie, who is of Pacific Island and Aboriginal descent and grew up in far north Queensland. It was illustrated by Grace Fielding who grew up at the Wandering Mission in Western Australia and whose artwork combines traditional dot art with contemporary images.
