Millie Marotta’s Precious Planet

A brand new colouring collection from number 1 bestselling illustrator Millie Marotta, exploring wildlife conversation - a subject very close to her heart. This gorgeous book features 90 amazing animals from around the world to colour, with a focus on endangered and vulnerable species. Containing a rich mix of wildlife from the much-loved snow leopard to the the adorable axolotl, from the vibrant ladybird spider to Attenborough’s long-beaked echidna, it’s a celebration of creatures that are currently at risk but that humanity is making efforts to save. Use your pencils or pens to bring colourful life to a wealth of wonderful animals, all rendered in Millie's beautifully intricate style, including: Big beasts like the Javan rhino, the wild camel and the elusive mountain gorilla. Treasures of the sea: the humphead wrasse, the mini blue bee shrimp and the majestic blue whale. The insects that pollinate our world: many different bumblebee species, the monarch butterfly. ‘Lazarus species’, thought to be extinct but now discovered in the world, such as the coelacanth and the New Caledonian crested gecko, and a few long-extinct and near-mythological animals - the woolly mammoth and the sabre-toothed tiger. Printed on high-quality paper with minimal show-through, suitable for all sorts of colouring media, this is a glorious treasury of the animals we don't want to lose.
