Mum's Elephant
Maureen Jipiyiliya Nampijinpa O'Keefe
Illustrated by
Christina Booth
SHORTLISTED, 2020 SPEECH PATHOLOGY AUSTRALIA BOOK OF THE YEAR AWARDS, FIVE TO 8 YEARS
Maureen Jipiyiliya Nampijinpa O’Keefe grew up in the remote community of Ali Curung in the NT. Her family lived a bush life. They didn’t own much but her mother had a very special ‘elephant’. It was her mother’s most prized possession and she gave it tender loving care. When her mother’s friends were around, they had tea-parties with the elephant. Often her mother would sleep with it beside her bed.
Christina Booth’s splendid illustrations of desert landscapes and bush life deepen the mystery of the elephant, only revealing subtle clues to its true identity. The reader is beguiled by the storytelling until the elephant is finally revealed.
Maureen Jipiyiliya Nampijinpa O’Keefe is a natural storyteller and conveys warmth and humour in her writing. Mum’s Elephant will intrigue children and remind adult readers of the simple things that held a special charm when they were young.
How much is shipping?
We offer free standard shipping on all orders over $150. All other orders are charged at a flat rate or $9.95.
How long will it take to receive my purchase?
We send all are orders via Australia Post’s Regular Service and can take 2-5 business days to arrive after dispatch. We will send a confirmation email with the tracking number once it has been dispatched from our HQ.
Is your sizing true to size?
We find that our sizing runs a little on the small side. We recommend buying the next size up if your child is in between sizes. Most of our items are made so they can be worn more than one season. Our blouses can be worn as a loose dress or a top, perfect for getting two summers out of one item. Send us an email if you have any more questions about sizing or would like to see the same size item worn on smaller and bigger kids.
What materials do you use?
We aim to use GOTS certified organic fabrics or otherwise strive to use the highest quality natural fabrics on the market.
What types of dyes are used for you prints?
Our fabrics are printed using GOTS organic certified and OEKO-TEX certified non toxic dyes
Will my fabric fade?
Due to the nature of using organic cotton and non toxic dyes, this fabric will not be as vibrant as using a synthetic fabric and toxic dyes. The fabric will fade slightly over time but we think it gives a really cool vintage feel.
We believe our obligation to care for the environment and children’s health are of top priority.
Please contact us if you have any questions and we will endeavour to get back to you as soon as we can.
We offer free standard shipping for all orders over $150. For all orders under $150 it is a flat rate of $9.95.
We send all are orders via Australia Post Regular Service. We will send a confirmation email with the tracking number once we have sent your item.
