Just as the title explains, this is basically a travel journal featuring the highlights of various places across Australia, such as the Great Barrier Reef, the desert, the rainforest, and so on.  Random anecdotal phrases strewn across each page.  Difficult to grasp all concepts as I am unfamiliar with the Australian animals, but would be a good companion for someone who has been there or is writing a report about Australian.  The BEST parts were the extravagantly beautiful watercolor illustrations–the details and colors were absolutely brilliant.  Loved the art!
