Global Connections!
The Nature Foldouts have become a unique opportunity to connect with the world. We have received interest from the UK, UAE, India, Ecuador, Netherlands, Spain, Germany, Hungary, France, Sweden, Turkey, Israel, Brazil, Morocco, Australia, Mexico, Japan, Bulgaria, Italy, Singapore, Portugal, Belgium, Malaysia, Canada, Russia, and throughout Africa!
Today, I received an email from Joseph who lives in Zambia:
Dear Ms. Dominique,
Peace. Greetings.
I am a Zambian who is interested in the work you do. I have just
visited your website: http://www.dominiquenavarro.com/ where I saw
your work on nature in Egypt. It looks so good, the illustrations are
exquisite.
Thank you so much Joseph!

Article in El Gourna Summer 2013 Magazine Features Egypt’s Flora & Fauna AUC Press Nature Foldout
Egypt’s Flora & Fauna
Dominique Navarro, American University in Cairo Press, 2013
This guide to Egypt’s plant and animal life is the second in a series of nature foldouts by the AUC press; a previously published guide is entitled Birds of the Nile Valley, and two additional foldouts on prehistoric and ancient wildlife are set for future publication. The creator of these works, Dominique Navarro, is an author and artist who has applied her skills to many previous projects related to Egypt and the natural world. In Egypt’s Flora & Fauna, she has consulted with natural historian Richard Hoath to provide readers an accessible and beautifully illustrated overview of the country’s diverse plants and animals.
The guide provides basic information about six different regions of Egypt and the wildlife native to each: the Nile Delta and Valley, Aswan Dam and Lake Nasser, the Western Desert plains and oases, the Mediterranean coastal zone, the Eastern Desert wadis and mountains, and the Sinai Peninsula. There are also brief sections about the animal life depicted on ancient Egyptian monuments and the Egyptian natural environment in the past, present, and future. The detailed, full-color drawings of water and land animals are delightful, particularly the depictions of Egypt’s seldom-seen canine and feline species. In addition, the back cover of the guide contains a map of Egypt’s natural protectorates. The foldout is small and compact, a perfect resource for travelers that fits easily into a backpack or purse.
