Beautiful artwork of Australian landscapes through the eyes of Indigenous Artist Bronwyn Bancroft created for children to learn about the Australian environment, its different landscapes and how to see life all around us in this diverse and beautiful land we all share. Learning to see the bountiful land with its unique flora and fauna will teach the children of today to care for the land and preserve it for the generations to come, which speaks to the Quaker Earthcare testimony.

Bancroft has masterfully illustrated Australian Animals using the bright acrylic colour and style of modern Aboriginal painting. The text is limited to the name of the animal, but a glossary of all the animals is included.
