Abel Tasman: Mapping the Southern Lands
Fullers Bookshop
A creative non-fiction picture book about Abel Tasman’s journey to Tasmania, New Zealand and the Pacific Islands.
More than 300 years ago, a young Dutch sailor named Abel Tasman stood on the prow of a ship that he and his crew had sailed across wild, unchartered waters. What happened next would change the course of history for Australia and New Zealand.
Told with great sensitivity to the indigenous cultures either side of the Tasman Sea, this picture book will appeal to kids and adults alike.
Join Maria for a discussion of Abel Tasman at Fullers Bookshop.
