Kuwi's First Egg: 2014

Description

Find out how Kuwi the Kiwi looks after her newly laid egg. She knits a scarf, sings a waiata and takes it out to play but Egg doesn't seem too impressed. When the egg begins to crack Kuwi thinks she has not done a very good job - what can she do? Read this delightful imaginary story about a clueless kiwi looking after her egg.

Kat Merewether was born in the Waikato in 1982. She grew up with a passion for art and drawing. She has three daughters who critique all of her work (a form of brutal, honest quality assurance). Kuwi's First Egg is Kat's 15th illustrated children's book - and the first she has both written and illustrated.

Children will enjoy the pictures, as the burrow expands and new insects make their own little homes around it, and the little kiwi's expressions are rather gorgeous. A book that will be asked to be read again and again. Maria Gill - Author & Children's Book Reviewer.
