Celebrity conservationist Bindi irwin has published her first book titled ‘You Are a Wildlife Warrior!’
A signed and ‘authenticated’ copy of the children’s tome will set back fans a very reasonable $19.
Posting to her stories on Friday, Bindi shared highlights from a Q&A and to give followers a preview of the new book.
Including a gallery of photos in the share, Bindi began by telling her fans what to expect from her first published outing.
‘This book takes you on a remarkable journey with me and my daughter Grace to experience our conservation work at Australia Zoo and worldwide!’ she said.
Bindi also included a cute picture of herself and her three-year-old daughter on her knee reading the new book.
All four were wearing the family’s ‘trademark’ khaki safari uniform.
Elsewhere in the online chat with fans, Bindi revealed she had been ‘working on the book’ since Grace Warrior was born in March 2021.
She also told readers that her late father Steve Irwin, co-founder of Australia Zoo, makes an appearance in the publication.
‘I do include my dad and our family,’ she revealed.
‘It is an honour to carry on his legacy together.’
Since Steve Irwin’s tragic death in 2006, his family have carried on his legacy and have won over legions of fans with their upbeat videos on social media.
Australia Zoo was actually founded by Steve’s dad Bob Snr in 1970.
He left the business for good in 2008 – two years after the death of his famous son.
It comes after Bindi shared an exciting announcement about the future of the family’s Australia Zoo on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland.
The celebrity conservationist revealed that the luxury new cabins at the Zoo’s Crocodile Hunter Lodge were now completed and ready to take bookings.
She posted a gallery of photos which showcased the cabins, which feature gorgeous spacious rooms, breathtaking nature views and all the luxuries of a five-star hotel.
Bindi captioned the gallery with some exciting words: ‘Our new cabins. @crocodilehunterlodge + my husband = in love. Come stay in our utterly breathtaking two storey cabins.’
‘Our best and newest luxury cabins!’ Bindi’s mother Terri Irwin added.
However, fans may need to save up for quite some time to stay there as bookings on their website currently have a three-night minimum stay at $6,397 – or just over $2,100 a night.
Bindi’s followers quickly took to social media to express their frustration at not being able to afford a booking.
‘If I ever become loaded, you will find me here,’ one person wrote.
‘I want to so bad but it is a little too expensive,’ a second user added.
‘Why can’t I be rich?’ a third person mused.
In December 2022, the Irwin family spoke about the importance of continuing Steve’s legacy by building the lodge.
‘This is an exciting time for us as a family to be able to continue on what dad’s vision was for Australia Zoo,’ Bindi said at the time.
