Summary Note "Mother Nature has a language. If we listen, and read the signs in the land, we can understand what she is telling us. For thousands of years, Aboriginal people have managed the land by burning Country. The trees and grasses tell us the right places to burn, and they also tell us when it's the best time to burn. Join Uncle Kuu as he shows us how to listen to the land so that we can look after the plants and animals, and learn how to live with fire. This is a powerful and timely story about Aboriginal burning knowledge, one that offers a respectful way forward for future generations to understand different ways to manage our landscapes." - Back cover.
