Australia is an immigrant nation with many stories. Award-winning author Susanne Gervay and award winning illustrator Anna Pignataro are part of that immigrant and refugee story. Susannes parents were post-war Hungarian refugees who migrated to Australia. Annas parents were post- war Italian refugees who migrated to Australia. In a unique collaboration, Susanne and Anna have created a moving and significant picture book, Ships in the Field. It crosses boundaries in a universal recognition that children are part of the journey of war, migration, loss and healing. Through warmth, humour, pathos and story within story, it breaks the silence, engaging children, families and community.
