Vibe, online review, November 2008
There is so much to know and learn about Indigenous Australia. But for someone who wants to get to grips with the whole story, where do you start? Right here, with The Little Red Yellow Black Book.

Gleebooks Gleaner, November 2008
This new edition has been comprehensively revised and provides a unique introduction to Indigenous realities and histories. Written entirely from an Indigenous perspective, its small paperback format fits a terrific ready reference into a very accessible package. It’s also a great tool for use in corporate or governmental cross-cultural training. If you have one book about Indigenous Australia on your shelves, this is it.

Online CRCAH newsletter, Gwalwa-Gail, December 2008
When used as a teaching resource, the book introduces almost all areas required for study in secondary Indigenous Studies curricula throughout Australia, as well as large parts of Australian History and SOSE curricula.

Creative Spirits, online review, December 2008
This second edition of the popular The Little Red Yellow Black Book is a superbly priced introduction to Australia's Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples; their history and their cultures.

Alexandra James, The Australian, February 2009
With its subtitle of An Introduction to Indigenous Australia, this smallish book is a long-overdue digest to the cultural, beliefs and folklore of this country’s traditional owners…It’s a good stepping stone to more in-depth reading and would make an excellent resource for schools.
