An illustrated reference book featuring 280 animals that eat and play during the day.

Some animals are part of a Gangly Gang whilst others belong to the Woolly Wanderers; there are also Legless Legends, Spotted Bottoms and Magic Mimics. These are just a few of the quirky groupings artist Tai Snaith uses to categorise over 270 of her favourite diurnal animals from around the world.

Each animal is drawn to scale and uses people and body parts as comparison. The Arctic bumblebee is the width of any eye, the sulphur-crested cockatoo is the length of an arm, and the wild yak is taller than a basketball player!

Including facts and information about the curious creatures found within, Wonders Under the Sun is a delightfully illustrated field guide for all the aspiring explorers, artists, environmentalist and taxonomists.

Tai Snaith

Tai Snaith is an artist, illustrator and writer based in Melbourne. Generous doses of honesty, absurdity and animism heavily influence her artwork and ideas alongside a recurring focus on collaboration, experimentation and nature.

She draws a wide range of subjects from her fictional ‘Hooraffes’ (half horse/half giraffe) to elegant still lives of stacks of books and plants. Snaith’s work explores inner thoughts, spirituality and symbolic weight of objects and creatures of the greater animal kingdom.

Recently revisiting her childhood love of drawing animal families and researching their fascinating private lives and quirks, Tai has published two popular children’s books; The Family Hour in Australia (2012) and Sticks and Stones, animal homes (2014), both with Thames and Hudson.
