The night is young and there is hunting to be done. An exciting new addition to the narrative nonfiction series Nature Storybooks, about dingoes.
Can you see her? There - deep in the stretching shadows - a dingo. Her pointed ears twitch. Her tawny eyes flash in the low-slung sun. Dingo listens. Dusk is a busy time. Dusk is the time for hunting.
This lyrical non-fiction picture book is written and illustrated by award-winning author Claire Saxby and stunningly illustrated by fine artist Tannya Harricks. Set amid the alpine forests of Victoria, Australia, the landscapes, mountains and forest in Dingo are just as real and vibrant as the dingo characters themselves.
