Read-Along: Tiwi in Paris

My name is Glen Farmer Illortaminni and I'm telling my story. Once I went to Paris as an interpreter for the old fella, the famous artist named Timothy Cook. It was October ...

When Glen travels from his remote Tiwi Island home all the way to Paris, his trip takes an unexpected turn when he gets lost on his first night there.

What follows is an epic journey through famous French landmarks and into the homes of kind strangers, telling an incredible story of resilience, humour and home.

Written and illustrated by Glen Farmer Illortaminni and read by Tamala Shelton.

READ-ALONG WITH STORYBOX!
With the Read-Along version, kids can follow the story both with their eyes and their ears. As they listen to the fun narration, they’ll also see the words appear on screen in a simplified way, helping them connect spoken words to text. N.B. the read-along captions will appear for the book section of the video only.
