Meb Ata: Grandfather Moon | Author: Merwez Whaleboat

‘Meb Ata lives in the night sky and his light makes the sea glitter. Meb Ata watches over our people in the Torres Strait, our totems the Wanpun, the Daumer, Dabor and Kebi Nam.’

On the Great Barrier Reef, there is a beautiful island with a hill shaped like a dugong. The island is called Murray Island and the hill is called Gelam. All around the island are colourful reefs, fish and sea animals.

One special day, Swana and her grandmother Kaied go night fishing in the eye of Gelam. Meb Ata, Grandfather Moon, is full and the fish are biting…

A rich and joyful story of the Torres Strait, with stunning illustrations.
