THE NEED FOR GOOD BOOKS IS NOW
                 MORE IMPORTANT THAN EVER.
                 At Australian Geographic we celebrate Australia and our amazing native flora
                 and fauna. We have also recently expanded our publishing program to include
                 some of the world’s most amazing and engaging animals. Our Children’s

                 Our greater non-fiction program ties very much into our mission to connect
                 people back to nature. There is a strong focus on stunning photography and
                 inspiring others to get back into our great outdoors and to explore, discover
                 and enjoy our incredible natural world.

                 During such uncertain times nature heals all, and this is a theme that flows
                 strongly throughout our publishing program.
