Join award-winning author and passionate conservationist Tim Winton, and watercolourist Cindy Lane as we celebrate the picture book Ningaloo: Australia’s Wild Wonder.

Launched by Professor Fiona Stanley AC, Tim and Cindy will dive into this incredible part of the world – home to some of the planet Earth’s rarest and most endangered creatures. From colourful coral reefs to muddy mangroves, and from enormous whale sharks to minuscule Cape Range millipedes, the biodiversity and interconnectedness of each distinctive ecosystem will fill you with wonder and awe.

Books will be available on the night courtesy of Boffins Books, and Tim and Cindy will be on hand to sign them.
