Review

Maria Gill, NZ Author/Reviewer ~ “Find out how Kuwi the Kiwi looks after her newly laid egg. She knits a scarf, sings a waiata and takes it out to play but Egg doesn’t seem too impressed. When the egg begins to crack Kuwi thinks she has not done a very good job – what can she do? Read this delightful imaginary story about a clueless kiwi looking after her egg. Children will enjoy the pictures, as the burrow expands and  new insects make their own little homes around it, and the little kiwi’s expressions are rather gorgeous. A book that will be asked to be read again and again.”
