Lyn pretending to be Mia

Just as I was about to start writing this I was interrupted by yet another delegate who wanted information about our wonderful Plenty Stories series.

Mia and I are here at the Fifth National Indigenous Education Conference where delegates are waxing lyrical about the Plenty Stories books we are displaying. "These are just wonderful" is the refrain of everyone who comes to our stall. Many delegates have been really excited to find themselves or someone or some place they know in the books. We really have had a fantastic response to the books with people seeing applications for them beyond the primary school, for secondary and even adult education.

The only disappointment people have had is that they cannot purchase the books immediately, we could have sold dozens of sets.

The conference itself has been great and very thought provoking. A worthwhile experience for all.
