Reviews

Bob’s Book Blog ~ As a granddad who has frequent contact with my granddaughters and regular family meetings it sometimes crosses my mind what will happen to all this when I die. What will my granddaughters remember about me? This is a theme of this picture book but not the only one.A regular family meeting eating pizzas and gazing at the stars is the scenario. Matariki is in focus. Grandpa says our ancestors are looking down at us and it is a nice thought. After passing is there a new star in Matariki? Concise story telling from Gillian Torckler and mood setting peaceful happy illustrations from Nikki Slade Robinson make this a feel good picture book to be read aloud.
