Meet Australian author Diana Harley as she discusses her three delightful picture books Butterflies; Beetles and Bugs; and Underneath the Apple Tree.

All three books encourage children to take an interest in the world around them. They are perfect for reading when learning about minibeasts, during springtime, or anytime.

Read the stories to your children and share information about Diana’s writing process. Use discussions about the books to inspire children’s imaginations and writing.
