REVIEWED BY MATILDA, 11, WA
Amazing Animals of Australia’s National Parks by Gina M Newton, National Library of Australia, ISBN 9780642278883
Matilda received a copy of this book from the publisher.
In this nonfiction book about Australian animals, there is one page for each animal with the headings:
What is it?
Where does it live? and
What is its life like?
I like the way the book is split up into the climates that the animals live in and the photographs are extremely professional. There is a ‘how to use this book’ page, which is really helpful for understanding certain symbols used in the book.
My favourite animal in this book was the Rufous Bettong (Aepyprymnus rufescens). This animal lives in woodlands, grasslands and forests.
I would recommend this book to anyone who loves animals and wants to know more about Australian animals.
