About the event
Join us in the shop to meet Toby Morris, award-winning illustrator, cartoonist, art director and author of Pūkeko Who-Keko?. This delightful book is a visual and verbal play on words that rhyme with pūkeko, one of Aotearoa New Zealand's most iconic and personality-laden blue birds.
Toby will be reading his new book and answering questions from his friend and fellow writer, Claire Mabey. Book signing to follow.
This story is for children aged 3–7 (and their not-so-serious adults) and will be on repeat read throughout Aotearoa New Zealand. Who-keko knew-keko that so many words rhyme with pūkeko?
See you there!
