In the north of Western Australia, where the desert meets the sea, lies one of the last great wild regions on earth. The First Peoples of the region call it Nyinggulu. The rest of the world knows it as Ningaloo. Join award-winning author and passionate conservationist Tim Winton and watercolourist Cindy Lane as they dive into this incredible part of the world.

• Inspired by Tim Winton's work over the past 25 years to protect the biodiversity of Western Australia's remarkable region, this is a stunning, fully illustrated picture book suitable for readers from 5+. 
• From enormous whale sharks to minuscule Cape Range millipedes, and from colourful coral reefs to muddy mangroves, Ningaloo: Australia's Wild Wonder looks at the biodiversity and interconnectedness of each distinctive ecosystem, and will fill young readers with awe.
• Ningaloo includes 31 spreads that feature hundreds of original, hand-painted artworks by Cindy Lane, covering more than 50 species of aquatic and terrestrial animals and plants.
• This book provides information on how young people can get involved in protecting Ningaloo, and encourages them to consider ways to protect other endangered Australian environments. 
• An excellent resource for primary and lower secondary schools and libraries, this is the first non-fiction picture book for children about Ningaloo - a state, national and international treasure - and covers concepts of geology, biology and ecology in an accessible way.
