In Reading Race, Clare Bradford looks at the ways in which Australia's indigenous peoples have been-and continue to be-represented in books for children. These varying representations have helped to color the attitudes, beliefs and assumptions of different generations of Australians. She offers a ground-breaking and intelligent picture of how Australian children's books, by both white and Aboriginal writers, have negotiated the matter of race.
