All of Us by Jackie French

A STUNNING NON-FICTION PICTURE BOOK THAT EXPLORES THE HISTORY OF SOUTHEAST ASIA

Join two children as they journey through the history of Southeast Asia - the fascinating lands linked to each other and Australia by the seas and monsoon winds. Share with them the discovery of a world filled with traders, adventurers and conquerors, the struggles for independence they witness, and the exciting arrival of the new millennium with its hopes and challenges.

This is a story that started 200,000,000 years ago - a history that includes all of us.

Written by former Australian Children's Laureate Jackie French and social historian Emeritus Professor Virginia Hooker, this fascinating book has been exquisitely illustrated by award-winning artist Mark Wilson.

A beautifully illustrated book that will engage both children and adults alike and provides insights into the intriguing region of Southeast Asia.
