Australian Backyard Exlorer is on the Children’s Book Council of Australia 2010 non-fiction shortlist.
The book looks at the science that confronted the early explorers of Australia. It provides projects and activities that help the reader investigate the problems early explorers faced. It is suitable for age eight and upwards. There are many ways to browse the information. For instance you can focus on the highlighted paragraphs. I hope it will inspire students to become Backyard Explorers themselves! The book has a helpful and positive environmental theme.
