Meeting Jeannie Baker

Another fan-girl moment for me… meeting @j_baker1989 at the exhibition featuring original collages from her most recent book, Desert Jungle. Another work of creative genius, Desert Jungle explores how children can reconnect with nature in a world that prioritises connecting to devices. Set in the Sonoran Desert in Mexico, the book examines biodiversity from the perspective of a boy and his grandfather. Several years in the making, Jeannie Baker’s latest book is another one to treasure, to share and to inspire curiosity and wonder. #royalbotanicgardenssydney provided the perfect setting for such an inspiring afternoon with critique buddy @sharondalgleishauthor and retreat buddy @leesuttonwrites #desertjungle #jeanniebaker #nature @walkerbooksaus
