Kids Book: Kuwis Rowdy Crowd
by Kat Mereweather
(plus free Kiwi soft toy)
Illustrated Publishing, 36pp
Kuwi's Rowdy Crowd is written by best-selling and award winning author and illustrator, Kat Merewether. Following on from the hugely popular Kuwi's First Egg, Kuwi's Huhu Hunt and Kuwi's Very Shiny Bum books, Kuwi the Kiwi attempts to find a moment of peace and quiet in the chaos of parenthood, but everywhere she turns the volume just gets louder.
Tap-dancing tomtits, Karate-kicking kokako and other noisy native friends join in the rowdy fun, until Kuwi can't take it any more.
The quirky and quintessentially Kiwi illustrations will have both adults and children laughing out loud, with a humorous storyline familiar to parents everywhere.
Young readers will be delighted by the fun noises they can make to match each illustration, and as they guess which creature will pop up next. The story also holds a heartwarming and subtle message about being happy with what you have.
Fun to read to kids, and beautifully illustrated, this is a lovely book to send to friends and family around the world.
