Follow a New Zealand flightless Kiwi bird as it hunts for a way to fly. He encounters many New Zealand native creatures in his quest, as he wanders through the local bush in Auckland, New Zealand.
As well as an exploration of New Zealand's Flora and fauna, the underlying message of true belief in yourself makes this sweet little story worthy of discussion with young readers. They will discover that others are always willing to help you achieve your dream if you have the courage to share it and the determination not to give up . The little Kiwi learns that it's hard to continue when those who are closest may not believe in your aspirations but you just need to think outside the square This children's tale enforces the premise that we are all different and unique but this doesn't mean we can't achieve goals, or follow our dreams.
