“There is much for young readers to pour over, wonder and discuss, making this picture book a valuable visual depiction of the settlement at Sydney and a starting point for discussion. At the same time the book provides a platform for the exploration of the concept of history writ both large and familial, and including multiple viewpoints”. Magpies Magazine
