Dave Gunson's New Zealand Wildlife
by Dave Gunson, l44pp limpbound, Penguin Books 2004, RRP$45.00. When Dave Gunson arrived in New Zealand as a boy, his imagination was immediately captured by a little blue penguin swimming about the berthing
immigrant ship. Since then he’s painted wildlife and plants for many books and posters, illustrated children’s books and designed stamps for several countries (and written a novel). This book gathers his favourite work, much of it previously unpublished, along with spare notes about the animals and plants illustrated. This is not a guide book to New Zealand wildlife: the author regards his pleasant album as a ‘personal response to New Zealand’s incredibly diverse and fascinating natural world’.
