Celebrating 30 yearsHappy New Year from Magabala Books! We're back on board for 2017 with a new-look newsletter and many exciting stories to share with you as we celebrate 30 years of independent Indigenous publishing. Our first title, At the Zoo I See, is another fantastic collaboration by Broome artists, Joshua Button and Robyn Wells and the first release of our 'Young Art' board book series, which showcases the work of young Indigenous artists across the country.

Introducing our February release

A delightful, classically designed board book for early childhood, At the Zoo I See will enthral young children and their older readers. 

The colourful and richly textured illustrations are accompanied by a soft lyrical text that introduces some of the diverse native and exotic animals found in Australian zoos. 

A ‘surprised lion’, a ‘pacing jaguar’, a ‘grinning gorilla’, and a ‘queenly cassowary’ are just a few of the creatures that will tug at the heartstrings in this fabulous animal parade.

Available from our website and all good bookstores across the country.
Check out this great new video about Josh and Robyn from WritingWA.

Magabala Books acknowledges Yawuru, the traditional owners and custodians of Broome. 
Yawuru people live by six seasons. They read the changing signs in the wangal (winds), the wula
(rainfall) and temperature, and the plants and animals, and notice how these come together.
The current Yawuru season is Man-gala (the wet), which occurs between December to March.
