A beautiful hardback illustrated poetry book. One side of each double-page spread is a painting of groupings of animals, which Raffaella Torresan has drawn skilfully and painted in pastel delicately, On the other side of each double-page spread is a poem relating to that animal by Australian poets of the calibre of Les Murray, Patrick McAuley, Alex Skovron, Kevin Brophy, Bruce Dawe, Merv Lilley, and Barry Dickins.
