The Little Kiwi Builder wasn’t planning on a new home, but hanging a very special picture doesn’t quite go to plan.
Suddenly he’s got a huge problem. Surely his tradie mates can help?
Coming together and sharing their special skills and strengths, The Little Kiwi Builder‘s buddies come to the rescue!
Bricks and drains, paint and pipes, and nails and wires are all part of the solution. But hang on a minute! Maybe they’ve forgotten something?
This purely Kiwi picture book is simply a delight to read aloud. Children will love the crash and bang of it, feel for The Little Kiwi Builder and recognise his tradie mates in friends or family members. They might have even met them in everyday life?
I love the rhyme and word play and the tradies being both men and women.
And the ending…..? Priceless.Â
