This beautifully illustrated alphabet board book by Aboriginal illustrator Bronwyn Bancroft is a delightful way to introduce young children to both the alphabet and a unique exploration of the diverse range of wildlife that are living in Australia. Some animals are familiar, others more unusual—as seen through the eyes of an Indigenous artist. Animals include: kangaroo, bandicoot, wombat, echidna, cockatoo, frog and goanna—and many more. All are portrayed in Bancroft’s vibrant colourful style.
Bronwyn Bancroft is a Bandjalang artist of the Djanbun clan in NSW. She has illustrated and/or written some 40 books for children and her artwork has been exhibited nationally and internationally.
