Each book has a selection of species – birds, mammals, reptiles, amphibians and sea life in a variety of habitat areas within wetlands, forests, rainforests, sea shores , rivers and oceans.
Colour by number, educational information about diet, habitat, habits, Quiz and fun activities for each species. Sometimes scientific latin names or indigenous language names has been included, and learning relevant scientific terms is encouraged also.
Each book features tips for colouring in, and encourages the use of coloured pencils rather than textas.
Childrens Colour and Draw series
Kids love these books about Australian animals. They have been developed in conjunction with some National Parks, communities, educational and environmental groups. They are encouraged to draw the animals themselves by finishing partially drawn images.

Intention
To encourage children to engage with nature and develop an awareness of, and a love for our native birds and animals. To encourage children and their families to look out for their local wildlife, and to learn what they do, where they live and what they need to survive. To encourage children to attempt some wildlife drawing, and develop some skill in using coloured pencils.
To help children discover the living things we share our earth with. Habitat is key. Habitat is the combination of physical, thermal, chemical and biological systems that
support living things on this planet. It is a state of influences that allow life to be and continue. A situation that provides living things with food and shelter, where they can successfully breed, nest, rest, grow and interact.
Humans are part of this web of life and the cycles of life on Earth, and like native species, we depend on the overall functions of natural systems for our own survival. Natural systems create the air we breathe, purify the water we drink, break down our wastes, and ultimately supply everything we need to eat, live, breed, shelter, interact and thrive.
Within each ecosystem there is an interconnectedness between the biodiversity, that is essential to the health and balance of the living things belonging there.
This biodiversity balance ensures their survival. Habitat is lost or degraded when the balance is disturbed so that fewer species can live within their essential nvironment.
With their understanding of the interconnectedness of ecosystems and the species within them, Susie is hoping that our children will be part of the solution for the future of our planet.
