Australian Story: An Illustrated Timeline

Once there was nothing. Then there was something . . . 

Come on a fascinating journey through time - from the explosive beginnings of our planet through the formation of the Australian landscape, from the deeply entrenched history of our Indigenous people to modern-day Australia.

Beginning with the creation of our country's landmass and climate, Australian Story: An Illustrated Timeline presents the key moments in our country's geographical, fauna and floral formation, and later human settlement.

Illustrated with a striking collection of photographs and images from the National Library of Australia's digital collection, this is history for children like never before. A fascinating snapshot of our country, Australian Story tells who we once were, who we are today . . . and where we are going.

Age range: 6-10
