I visited the Western Plains Zoo in NSW for the first time in 2010. As I spent the day wandering round taking photos I thought about my young nephew and how this was a great opportunity to make something for him. I made sure I also recorded the correct names of the animals so I could include them as I wanted to make this semi educational. Animals are fun to look at but it was important to make sure he would learn about what he was looking at.
I completed the book and gave him a copy as a christmas present that year.
