One of Steve Parish's passions is sharing his love of Australia and his love of books with children. These early learning books will inspire in children an interest in Australian wildlife. Parents can sit together with their children, read aloud and talk about the pictures.
In this book children will learn about Australian wildlife, animal behaviour and their different habitats. Brilliant photographs and simple text will assist in the development of basic concepts of literacy and numeracy, and the interpretation of pictorial information by using the illustrations as cues to decode text.
The large colourful images will fascinate children, and reinforce early learning through word/picture association. Beginning readers will discover the pleasure of reading for enjoyment and develop a recognition of Australian native animals.
