Snuggled Away

Snuggled Away is a richly illustrated, rhyming story that explores the habits of Australia's nocturnal animals. As you drift off to sleep, animals all around Australia are busy caring for their young and searching for food. This beautifully illustrated children's book about Australian wildlife features ringtail possums, sugar gliders, powerful owls, carpet pythons, pygmy possums, bettongs, wombats, bandicoots, phascogales, marsh frogs, tree frogs, honey possums, bush stone-curlews, pademelons, quolls and bilbies.

While making an engaging and light-hearted bedtime story, Snuggled Away is also gently educational, introducing both well-known Australian animals and lesser-known wildlife. Interesting facts follow the main story, and both children and adults can learn from the pictorial catalogue of featured animals at the back of the book, complete with their common and scientific names. With 34 full-page illustrations, this book is perfect for budding nature explorers.

Designed primarily to be read aloud to preschool and early-primary-aged children, Snuggled Away will also delight older siblings, parents and grandparents.
