From tropical blooms to wild woodlands, the book contains a stunning selection of inquisitive birds from across the world including gentle blue tits and violet-tailed sylphs; majestic peacocks and Oriental darters; and striking birds of prey, such as the golden eagle and great grey owl.

A beautiful colouring book for all ages, it contains over 70 pages of wondrous birds living in a world brimming with fantastical flora and fauna. Birdtopia also includes a key of birds and eight pages of lavishly coloured illustrations to inspire the reader.

Daisy is a graduate of the University of Brighton and the Royal College of Arts, and has worked as a freelance illustrator for over 10 years with clients including Visa, Sony and Dior. She now runs her own successful business, Daisy Fletcher Designs.
