“Kevin..” is a great book for 4-year-olds. It has a beautiful message about acceptance, belonging, diversity and a positive self-image. The story is fairly short, which keeps the toddler’s attention, and can be read ‘in one go’ without the child being bored….”

Now it’s available
for children in the UK!
“Just wanted to say that this book has become one of my grandson’s favorites. Jude, my daughter’s son, is 3 years old and when he comes to visit me he requests it every night at bedtime and he can finish off every sentence.
Recommend it to any toddler.”

There are many skills needed to be learnt when living outside cities in Australia, especially if your home is way Outback or happens to be a station, which is the Australian name for a (very big) farm (some are the size of an English county, …and often bigger!); how to fix a truck, how to round-up cattle, how to make a campfire and of course, how to feed a baby
This cute animal is a character from our children’s book about Kevin. Here are some interesting facts about these cute Australian animals. Fact No 1 Wombats have pouches like kangaroos but “backwards”, baby wombats must be careful not to fall out of them . Fact No 2 Wombats like to dig holes and that’s why their pouches are facing the other way – so that dirt doesn’t get into them
For many years scientist have been trying to solve the mystery of wombat’s poop. Why is it cube-shaped? Wombats make around 100 of cube-shaped feces a day and they use them to mark their territory. There is a theory that they are cube-shaped because wombats climb on rocks and such feces do not easily roll off.. “Wombats have really strong sense of smell that they use probably for communication,” said
