Description
What kind of animals lay eggs? Where do they lay them, and how do they look after them?
Meet some of Australia's incredible egg-laying animals. Starting at the sea, Hatch takes us on a journey inland and underground, to the treetops high above, and back down to a waterhole, till finally we reach the sea once more.
With detailed and vibrant illustrations, Hatch provides a glimpse of these amazing egg-laying creatures, the unique habitats in which they live and how they look after their young.
Reading level varies from child to child, but we recommend this book for ages 5 to 9.
