Description

We're going on a moa hunt. We're not scared. We're going to catch a BIG one. We're NOT scared! Uh-oh ...a tangly forest! CRACK, CREAK, SNAP! Join in the search! But you'll need to keep your eyes open ...could it be that a moa is hunting YOU? We're Going on a Moa Hunt is a fabulous New Zealand adventure that takes readers on an exciting journey through the country's spectacular landscapes. Award-winning Patrick McDonald's pictures teem with native plants and wildlife, and sharp-eyed kids will love discovering the moa cleverly hidden in every scene of the hunt. "Uh-oh", this Kiwi retelling of the classic children's tale is likely to prove as popular as the original! In this version, three children venture out in search of the eponymous moa "swishing and rustling" across a wide paddock, scalding their feet on "scorching sizzling sand", slurping their way through a "sucky mucky swamp" and so on. Vivid illustrations of a variety of New Zealand landscapes, flora and fauna are sure to keep another generation enthralled.' Helen Speirs, Otago Daily Times
