New Zealand
Book •
This compact book, created and illustrated by Maja Zonjic, profiles 100 large roadside sculptures and structures across Aotearoa New Zealand, pairing a single Polaroid-style photo with location details for each entry.
Designed as a pocket-sized travel companion, it includes GPS coordinates, an index, regional sections for North and South Islands, and a fold-out map to help visitors locate lesser-known sites.
The book mixes famous landmarks like the L&P bottle and the big carrot with more recent and quirky additions, celebrating regional identity, tourism value, and local pride.

Mary Fawcett endorses it as an attractive, useful guide and a great gift or road-trip inspiration.
