The creatures are not only beautifully drawn and coloured, but the accompanying text vividly describes their lifestyles and habits. The wonderment of these stunning animals, delivered in anengaging cinematic punch, will excite the imaginations of children for life and fully engage any adult with a love of Australia's wildlife.
