Sleep Little Kiwi, Sleep By Deborah Hinde, PictureBoo­k Publishing, $19.99

- — Linda Hall

The illustrati­ons in this book are just beautiful. Children will love pointing out the birds and insects.

As the sun goes down, tui sings its last song for the day before settling in for the night. As the moon rises Little Kiwi is waking up. He's hungry and it's dark so that means it's time for him to get up.

Off he goes into the night looking for food and avoiding stoats. With a full belly, he dances and twirls through the night. As the dawn appears Little Kiwi heads back to his burrow while tui heralds in the new day with song. A delightful book.
