A Year in the Life of Bindi

Conservation spokesperson and TV personality Irwin chronicles events that unfold in a year spent at age 12 following in her late father Steve Irwin’s footsteps. Monthly journal-style entries (joined by a plethora of color photos) relay her experiences whale watching, studying crocodiles, observing sea lions in Oregon, and meeting animals at the Australia Zoo, including a long-eared bat and a baby rhino. A visit to Universal Studios and mention of homework assignments amid her travels contribute to Bindi’s allure as a regular girl with a passionate interest in animals. Ages 6–up. (June)
