The Echidna Near My Place

A delightful addition to the Nature Storybooks series, The Echidna Near My Place tells the story of a child and their nana, and the echidna they love to follow around.

Nana and I walk through the paddock most days. And you know what? An echidna lives here. We don’t always see it. But I’m always looking for it. As a young child and their nana go for walks together, they follow a short-beaked echidna keenly observing and discussing what its life might be like.

Learn with them about what echidnas eat, where they live, and how they protect themselves. A wonderful addition to the acclaimed and award-winning Nature Storybook series, which provides memorable reading experiences, combining narrative and factual forms.
