Summary
Andrew Kelly, Yarra (Birrarung) Riverkeeper, joins Senior Wurundjeri Elder Aunty Joy Murphy to tell of a journey through the past, present, and future of the Birrarung, river of mists and shadows. From sunrise to sunset, we meander our way down the Birrarung, led by the beautiful illustrations of Lisa Kennedy (from the Trawlwoolway people of northern Tasmania) and guided by the spirit of Bunjil, the creator. This story of one river is the story of all our rivers that flow from mountains down through cities and towns to the sea
