-
1, 2, 3 of Australian animals is a book that teaches young kids to count from 1 through to 15 with beautiful illustrations that take inspiration from Aboriginal art. This is such a fun and unique book that teaches not only counting but also about Australian animals but art is my favorite part of the book.
5 stars -
Lovely illustrations - the baby seems to enjoy them.

I think this is a re-edition of
An Australian 1, 2, 3 of Animals?
It felt familiar, and the inside front cover of this book says:First published 2007
And the author-artist's

website shows the current covers of this book and
abc of Australian Animals (2018, per GR) and not
An Australian 1, 2, 3 of Animals (2007-2013, per GR) or
An Australian ABC of Animals (2004-2013, per GR).
An Australian 1, 2, 3 of Animals goes up to 15, whereas this only goes up to 12, but the first 12 are the same in both books.
In some illustrations, the animals are so close together as to be connected, which maybe makes it less clear to the child reader that they are distinct entities? -
Gorgeous illustrations of Australian animals. A nice focus on native species for young ones.

Gorgeous, gorgeous illustrations. We received this book for free in the baby bundle from NSW Health and it is a treasured addition to the collection.
