Description
From the #1 Bestselling Author and Illustrator of the Kuwi the Kiwi™ series, Kat Merewether. Following on from the hugely popular Kuwi's First Egg and Kuwi's Huhu Hunt books.
With the soft jingle of bells, a mysterious gift falls from the sky. It is a shimmering red ball. Kuwi knows exactly what it is. A very shiny bum. She decides to make gifts, so her friends can feel as fortunate as she does. A hula hoop for Herb the hippy hoiho. Tasteful trimmings for Tash the tuft-less tui. A moustache for Morris the meek morepork...but wait, no 'thank yous'?
A humorous and light-hearted story to guide children from a young age to look for small ways to be generous and caring of others, in a time of year that can often be all about the 'presents'.
A book to instil an attitude of generosity and giving, appreciation and thankfulness.
