Description

Animalia is a classic Australian children's book, written and illustrated by Graeme Base. 

Celebrating its 35th anniversary in 2021, the much loved book has now been captured on a coloured 20cent coin for posterity.

The book has since been turned into a television series and adapted for babies with My First Animalia.

The Royal Australian Mint has partnered with the Children's Book Council of Australia to release this coin, the first of a new series.
