'Walk with us through one of the Top End's magnificent monsoon forests, in Kakadu National Park, learning about the plants, animals and Kundjeyhmi culture along the way.
'When we go walking, we never know how long we will be, what we will hear and what we will see.
'We pack our bags with food and water, a billy and some matches to light a fire.
'We head off into the shady monsoon forest on the edge of the billabong.
'Diane Lucas, Ben Tyler and Emma Long share their knowledge and love of the Top End in this enchanting and accessible book about one of Australia's most ancient and beautiful ecosystems.'
