Steve Irwin Day is celebrated annually on 15th November   to honour the life, legacy, and conservation work of the legendary zookeeper and "Crocodile Hunter," Steve Irwin. 

The day  is celebrated on 15th November because it was the birthday of Harriet, the much loved Galapagos tortoise who lived at Australia Zoo. People are encouraged to wear khaki and donate to Wildlife Warriors, a global conservation charity set up by Steve and Terri Irwin in 2002.

Although Steve Irwin died on 4th September, 2006 while filming on the Barrier Reef, his legacy lives on through the zoo and his family, wife Terri, daughter Bindi and son Robert.

To celebrate this day you could read a biography about Steve Irwin

Or embark on a series of books associated with either Bindi or Robert.

This series is still read in my library by Year 2 girls.

This series is only popular with dinosaur-loving readers now.
