Little puddle
By Aimee and
Kelsey
All that was left of a
large flood was a
little puddle that
lived on a mountain…
Barrway duulgam –nyarr
guluura-buluga ngayingging.
Yarrang nyangga junuy
juluumba ngayingging …
Gala nyangga junuy
bayi barrwayaygu,
biganybarr-bugany.
But the little puddle
wanted to be as large as a
lake
He saw the life in the
creek below and
dreamed about having
friends.

But The little puddle
was scared because
it hadn’t rained in
weeks.
Then the puddle saw
three elders. They
walked to him and did a
rain dance.
Yaarriga nyanggalu

Soon after It started to rain
The puddle got so big that it
flowed over the edge

And joined with the creek
to make a river. He lived
for lots of years and
made lots of friends
