'Story of two Aboriginal children who undertake a search for their baby brother who has been taken by a whirlwind. The story adapts aspects of Aboriginal Dreaming stories to give substance to their tale of a lost child and the search for him by his older siblings. It also draws upon European folk tale traditions to produce a children's fantasy with a strong Australian flavour.' (trove)
