Australia has a wide variety of native animals and plants living in many different environments. However, many of Australia's animals and plants are in danger of becoming extinct. Each title in this new Australian series describes 10 animals and two plants that are in danger. The threats they face are described as well as the ways people are working to help them survive. Each spread contains a large colour photo of the endangered animal or plant, a map showing where the animal or plant can still be found, and a 'Did you know?' fact box containing extra fascinating information. Suitable for 7-12 year olds.
