Several ticks from me! A most satisfying book all round.
*Radio New Zealand*
Geez, Donovan Bixley truly is a NZ children's literature icon. I'd
say "he could write about grass growing and I would read it" and I
would be right because that's what Rustle! is about! Well, it's
about our gorgeous native plants in Aotearoa but you get the gist.
Perfect for your little budding gardener or wilderness explorer
this guide gives you fun facts about plants you can find in your
own backyard.
*The Booklover*
Best new and noticed kids' picture books.
*New Zealand Listener*
A perfect first book for kids to identify and find out about more
our native plants.
