Wonderful!
I am a student in Elementary Education and my mother-in-law (a teacher) gave me this book for Christmas. I was able to use it in a presentation, we did a story impression, and loved it. It was also a big hit with the rest of my classmates. Base's illustrations and story line are amazing in this book. I can't wait to purchase more!

Great in the classroom and home use
Everyone that I meet and sees the Animalia Wall Frieze loves it!!! I use it as a teacher to teach alliteration and my students love the find all kinds of objects in the pictures. This is not like the book because it comes in four long panels that you can use to decorate your classroom. I have had parents come to ask me where they can get it because they wanted to hang it up in their child's ...

Spectacular! Required for home library.
This was a gift to my 2-year old from a girlfriend/kinder teacher. My son is now almost 5, his brother is 2.5, and this book is dog-eared! We read this at least 3x/week. The illustrations are breathtaking. Their animal vocabulary is amazing. Their attention to detail has definitely improved in many areas - they look for hidden images in all their books now. Animalia, also by Graeme Base, is ...

Twas brillig, and the slithy toves...
I LOVE this poem by Lewis Carroll. It is extremely well written and inspires the imagination to soar to new heights. I am a big fan of illustrator Graeme Base. His bright and colorful creatures makes this Lewis Carroll classic a MUST for anyone.

Truly Inspiring
One of my favorite children's book, "The Water Hole" is loaded with goodies of all sorts. Masterfully painted animals and creatures of all sorts from around the globe. As an artist I am truly inspired by the gifts and talents that Graeme Base so seemingly effortlessly portrays in his works of art. This book is truly clever and is garanteed to capture the attention of any child or adult for that ...

I love this book
Sign of the Seahorse is such a charming book. Graeme Base is a terrific artist, and this book is one of his best. I was a bit doubtful about the idea of an epic poem about the adventures of a bunch of fish as I am not one for reading poetry. However, it was great fun, and the poetry was a nice bit of whimsy. Every page has color illustrations, and Base made a large, decorated map for the ...

Abrams, 2008

RIOTOUS COLORS AND INCREDIBLE DETAIL
Perhaps best known for his creation of Animalia, Graeme Base is a prodigiously talented artist whose paintings enchant both children and adults. To celebrate a quarter century of his extraordinary talent Penguin Books Australia published this retrospective of his work. With text by children's book editor and publisher Julie Watts who has worked closely with Base we are not only treated to a ...

The Discovery of Dragons

Graeme Base

Michael Joseph Ltd, 1996

The perfect gift choice for a true dragon connoisseur
This is the kind of book you leave on a coffee table for visitors to peruse. It has beautiful large color plates of dragons on every left-side page and amusing anecdotes on each facing page. The author is presuming to be an authority on "the discovery of dragons" and in a tongue-in-cheek narrative is trying to professionally prove the disclaimers of his "one time colleague Marty Fibblewitz" ...

A true beauty
I collect children's books, mainly because they get to the point (something I wish adult books would do), but also for the artwork. This book is such a treasure. Not only are the illustrations beautiful, but the design of the book makes it one of a kind. It's a true beauty.

Discovering Dragons
I never knew Dragons were such fun. Every kid needs a little fantasy no matter how old they are. A really enjoyable way to pass a few quiet moments, and oh those amazing sketches. From an old kid who just won't give up.

Illustration are out of this world into Base's magical world
This picture book is great for anyone but especially young ones. As a school librarian, I use this book with the poster to draw elementary-aged children into a variety of topics about animals. The illustrations are magical. They seem to feature a world within a world. The setting for the animals have that "long ago and far away" feel. The details in the illustration are unbelievable. The ...

Fun book to return to many times
I love looking at this book with my children (age 3 1/2). It's not a traditional sit down and read book, but one where you hunt for words that begin with a specific letter. We usually pick one or two letters per sitting because you can spend so much time on one page. The drawings are amazing, and we love finding new things every time we look. It's great for thinking about the alphabet and ...
