'An important true story by Nukgal Wurra author-illustrator Wanda Gibson about connection to place and the joy of family, based on her childhood holidays to the beach.
'Three Dresses tells the true story of Wanda Gibson’s experiences as a child growing up in a Lutheran Mission in the 1950s in Far North Queensland, Australia. Rations of food, clothing and materials were provided under strict conditions, but somehow Wanda and her family made the memories of these second-hand dresses ones that were cherished and shared for generations to come.'
