It's Christmas Eve, and the baubles are bickering over the best spots on the Christmas tree, when an unexpected visitor appears. A tree-toppling catastrophe seems certain ... unless the decorations can set aside their differences and work together? From the talented and award-winning duo, Emma Bowd and Matt Shanks, comes a rollicking festive tale full of humour and heart -- and more than a tiny bit of tinsel.
I have lived and worked my whole life in Gadigal and Boon Wurrung Country in what we now call Australia. I acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land on which I do my work and I pay my respects to elders past and present. I acknowledge the sorrow of the stolen generations and the impacts of colonisation on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. I also recognise the resilience, strength and pride of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities and through my work, aim to help as much as I can to empower and help them thrive.
The land we call Australia always was and always will be Aboriginal land.
