The author is offering young readers or listeners an opportunity to slow down and enjoy their surroundings, just as many of the characters do. This book is really something special, and at varying lengths and topics, I enjoyed every story within.About the Kiwi creatorsSonya McArthur lives in Hokitika, on the West Coast of New Zealand’s South Island.
