Category: NZ Picture Books

A Creature is a children's picture book that aims to build appreciation for an animal that contributes greatly to daily life, in a way that does not personify the animal.  The story is a series of poems that form a narrative about a rooster and a flock of chickens.  Whilst the book does not place human characteristics upon the creatures, there are several human lessons to be learned from it.

A self-published work, it is Catherine's first book.    ...Show more
