Takeaways and seeds...

As Haruki Murakami beautifully expressed, "metaphors help eliminate what separates you and me."

Metaphors connect. We recently had the fortune of participating in the Australian Children's Content Summit, where the accreditations were printed on plantable seed paper. Thanks for bringing us together, .

It was wonderful to feel connected with others through our shared ideals.

"Change the story, change the world. Change the storytellers, change the world."

Thanks to all the organisers, guests, attendees and to the SAFC for supporting Karu-Karu's participation.
