*Shortlisted for the SPN Book of the Year Award 2020*

Nganajungu Yagu is dedicated to Papertalk Green's mother, and is built around selected correspondence between Yagu and Daughter. It gently reminds us of the sacrifices made by our matriarchs over time. Each letter and response provide not only a 'mark of existence' for the writer, but a medium for mother / daughter to connect while at a distance. The love and respect penned here will inspire readers to think about the ways we should engage people we love through words. This revival of letters not only reminds me of the nearly lost art of letterwriting, but the impact one has on its receiver.

'Forty years ago, letters, words and feelings flowed between a teenage daughter and her mother. Letters written by that teenage daughter — me — handed around family back home, disappeared. Yet letters from that mother to her teenage daughter — me – remained protected in my red life-journey suitcase. I carried them across time and landscapes as a mother would carry her baby in a thaga.

In 1978 - 79, I was living in an Aboriginal girls' hostel in the Bentley suburb of Perth, attending senior high school. Mum and I sent handwritten letters to each other. I was a small-town teenager stepping outside of all things I had ever known. Mum remained in the only world she had ever known.

Nganajungu Yaguwas inspired by Mother's letters, her life and the love she instilled in me for my people and my culture. A substantial part of that culture is language, and I missed out on so much language interaction having moved away. I talk with my ancestor

Teeny Tiny Terrific Toy
Size: Extra Small (Pack of 1), Color: Pink
Perfect for a mini puppy! So teeny tiny; it cracks me up looking at it!! However, my little dog (10 week old Cavapoo) absolutely loves playing with it! It’s her fav! You can stuff 2-5 tiny treats in it to keep puppy occupied and focused.

Must have for a young puppy
Size: Small (Pack of 1), Color: Blue
Very helpful for our young puppy. Cleaning it isn't the easiest, but cleaning advice is easily found online and it's worth the hassle to have a durable lasting toy around

Perfect for small senior dogs!
Size: Extra Small (Pack of 1), Color: Pink
So I actually bought this for my senior Bolonka. She has a neurological disorder that does not allow her to have hard bones or treats, plus I am trying to protect her teeth for as long as I can. This is a GREAT toy. I like to fill up the middle with yogurt or peanut butter and things she can lick instead of bite into. This is the PERFECT size for her. She likes to play with it even without a treat on the inside. She just carries it around the house , as its not heavy at all, and throws it around, it is too cute! It is not loud at all, the only noise that comes out is if shes got a ton of saliva and her teeth rub against it. I just pulled it off the packaging, washed it, and it was ready to go. It will last forever with my baby because she doesn't chew hard so I am unsure about the durability for bigger pups or dogs who are heavy chewers. I am so glad I got this for her and I would HIGHLY recommend it!
