The Two-Hearted Numbat

A beautiful First Nations picture book from the award-winning brother–sister team Ambelin and Ezekiel Kwaymullina, now in a new, small hardback edition.

There was once a numbat who had two hearts. Numbat’s first heart was a feather, and when he wore it he felt soft and gentle. His second heart was a stone, and when he wore it he felt powerful and strong. But it was troublesome to have two hearts. Numbat decided it would be better to have only one – but which heart should he choose?
