Wonder Earth: Exploring Our Living Home by Zanni Louise and Tiff Bollhorn

Illustrated by Sophy Louise Smith

If we saw ourselves as belonging to the Earth rather than standing apart from it, what would Earth look like? A wonder-filled place? A place we want to protect now and forever? Welcome to Wonder Earth. The Earth has so much to share if only we stop, listen and wonder. Starting with the sun that gives us and all living things life, to the patterns, feelings, stories and relationships that we share with other natural things. Let’s explore what it means to belong to our Earth home.
Written by bestselling children’s author, Zanni Louise, and environmental educator, Tiff Bollborn, Wonder Earth celebrates both the poetry and science of our Earth home, inspiring awe for the place that sustains and protects us and that needs our protection. The stunning illustrations by Sophy Louise Smith highlight the interconnectedness of human and nature, built and natural, and celebrate the colour, patterns, and visual rhythms of the natural world.

Zanni Louise has been a storyteller since childhood. It wasn't until she had her first child that she pursued a grown-up career as an author. She lives in Australia with her family and a cat named Mary Feather Flower.

Tiff Bollhorn is an Environmental Author and Educator. Tiff first fell in love with the natural world as a child. Adventuring deep into the Canadian wilderness on canoe trips each summer, grew her wild love and curiosity for the Earth, leading her to pursue sciences, studying Oceanography, Geology and an undergraduate degree in Biological Sciences.

With a Masters degree in Environmental Education, Tiff has been sharing her love for the Earth through teaching ecological and sustainability education for over 15 years. She has taught for an array of environmental organizations including nearly a decade at CERES Community Environment Park in Melbourne. She also has years of experience as a school-garden teacher and has also been a sustainability facilitator the Australian Sustainable Schools Initiative (AuSSI).

Inspired by her years of teaching, Tiff has co-authored WONDER EARTH with Zanni Louise, a children’s picture book about our wondrous connections to the Earth in everyday life. Tiff is excited to be using this book to run Ecoliteracy Workshops for schools and events, celebrating life and connection, weaving together art and science. Since becoming an author, Tiff has presented with the Byron Writers Festival StoryBoard program, and at events such as the Sidestep Kids Festival hosted by Roundabout Theatre and at the Dark Science-New Moon Science Week Program hosted by the Lismore Regional Gallery.
