Snuggled Away, written by Cate Storey and illustrated by Sarah Matsuda, is a richly visual, rhyming story that explores the habits of Australia’s nocturnal animals.
Hardcover with a gold embossed title, this book sells successfully in galleries, gift and tourist shops.
This stunning children’s book about Australian wildlife features: possums, sugar gliders, owls, carpet pythons, bettongs, wombats, bandicoots, phascogales, marsh frogs and tree frogs, honey possums, bush-stone curlews, pademelons, quolls and bilbies.
While making an attractive light-hearted bedtime story, Snuggled Away is also gently educational, covering both well-known Australian animals and less familiar wildlife. Interesting facts follow the main story and both children and parents can learn from the pictorial catalogue of the featured animals, accompanied by their scientific and common names, at the back of the book. With 34 full page illustrations, this book is perfect for budding nature explorers.
