"I bought the 4 book pack to use with Year 4 English unit on conserving Australian habitats. The books are beautifully presented and text easy for younger children to manage. I love how the colouring is so natural and not over the top gaudy colours. This will all add to our unit on conservation." -Vanessa Lanham Young readers will soon familiarise themselves with these beautiful birds and find enjoyment in seeking them out. Information about each bird can be found at the back, as well as a few tips for birding and identifying your spottings! The illustrations are all created from dry point etchings which have been hand coloured with watercolour paints, or in the case of Kookaburra Kookaburra with linoprints. These books are self published using Bridget's own publishing label - Black Cockatoo Books. NOTE Please see the individual book's page for specific bird listing. Each book has an accompanying card game, which can be bought individually or as a set.
