Giselle Clarkson is an illustrator and science communicator, and author of the best-selling non-fiction book The Observologist, which has been translated into four languages.
It's a book for children, but Giselle says taking notice of the natural world - like the colours on a leaf, and the fine hairs on a spider's leg - is key to retaining a childlike sense of wonder.
She's giving the keynote talk for this year's New Zealand International Science Festival's 'nano-fest' in Dunedin this year and speaks to Emile Donovan about her love of combining science and art.
