There are all kinds of critters that call our backyards home. In this fantastic field guide that’s full of (mostly true) facts, learn all about insects and creatures that you might find living in gardens across Australia – like ladybugs, snails, blue-tongues and even… eeerm… pet rocks! 

For example, did you know that butterflies are like moths – just fancier? They fly around during the daytime to show off their pretty, colourful wings. This is probably why moths prefer to only come out at night!

Packed full of beautiful, colourful illustrations by author Andy Geppert, you’ll be buzzing about this funny book that celebrates the incredible nature just outside our backdoors!
