Description of this Book

Making My Place tells the story of how an Australian picture book classic has become a television series. The original picture book, by Nadia Wheatley and Donna Rawlins, depicts the history of a small piece of land from the present day back into Aboriginal time, through the stories of the various children who lived there. In this companion book, Nadia Wheatley uses stills from the series and interviews with young actors and experienced film-makers to give insights into the stories told in the My Place television series and the history that underlies them.
