The popular first edition established itself as both authoritative and informative; it is both a guide book and an alternative social history, told through precincts of significance to the city’s Indigenous people. The sites within the precincts, and their accompanying stories and photographs, evoke Sydney’s ancient past, and allow us all to celebrate the living Aboriginal culture of today.

This publication is the revised edition of the Cued Articulation range. The previously separate titles Cued Articulation and Cued Vowels are now combined and updated, with this edition covering consonants, vowels, demonstrative images and full colour coding throughout. Originally devised to help severely speech and language handicapped children to see a sound and hear a letter by the use of easy and logical hand cues, the Cued Articulation system has, over the last three decades, proved an invaluable teaching tool. Its potential and practicality is widespread and utilised by speech pathologists, speech and language therapists, remedial and reading recovery teachers who find the approach helpful in showing phoneme–grapheme relationships; and primary teachers who use it in the classroom to teach children the sounds of speech.

This book tells the story of ecological forest recovery in the wet forests of Victoria following major wildfires in February 2009.

Forest Phoenix presents this important story via short engaging text and truly spectacular images, which are accompanied by highly informative captions. If you’ve ever wanted to better understand how forests and forest biodiversity recover after wildfire, then this book is a must-read.
