Adventures on the Dreaming Path

Stories, Wisdom and Activities for Kids

By Paul Callaghan

A younger reader's companion volume to the bestseller The Dreaming Path – learning lessons through story.

Meet Uncle Rolly, your guide through Dreamtime stories and activities, and join Emily and Jacob as they go on adventures to new and beautiful locations out in the bush. In each chapter, Uncle Rolly tells us all a Dreamtime story, followed by a yarn with the children and their teacher, Ms Green.

At the end of each chapter, there's a conversation point and an activity that centres on themes such as:
  • caring for Country
  • being yourself
  • learning from hard times
  • friendship
  • following your dreams
  • the importance of story.
Learn more about how to care for your place and everything in your world, including yourself and your family and friends. This is how we connect with our Dreaming Path and live a happier life.

Come along on an adventure of a lifetime, following the Dreaming Path.

About the author

Paul Callaghan is an Aboriginal man belonging to the land of the Worimi people, located on the coast of New South Wales just north of Newcastle. For many years he has held senior executive positions in Aboriginal- and non-Aboriginal-related service areas, but eventually his desire to focus on community and individual wellbeing compelled him to start his own business. In addition to consultancy work, Paul is a motivational speaker, a storyteller, a dancer and an author. In 2019 his manuscript of a novel titled Coincidence was shortlisted for the inaugural Daisy Utemorrah Award. The shortlisting inspired Paul to undertake a PhD in Creative Practice, for which he has written a second novel, titled Consequence. Paul's passions are driven by his belief in the power of story to create a better world.
