A gently philosophical all-ages graphic short story by critically acclaimed storyteller and artist, Matt Shanks. An exploration of the human story of separation from nature, and how we might best spend our short time on this earth.
This is a self-published, digital edition and all proceeds from the sale of This Generous Earth will support literacy education access for disadvantaged children via the Australian Literacy and Numeracy Foundation.
A lovely exploration of the concept of life cycles and the impact that a generous heart can have on the world.

I love what comes out of this brain of yours!

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.
