Bug in the Dark

A bug in the dark is sooo hungry and doesn't know how to find anything to eat. After watching other insects come and go she comes up with a very cunning plan! Brilliantly animated characters and verse that children will love are set in real photographed locations in New Zealand's native forest.

A bug in the dark is sooo hungry and doesn't know how to find anything to eat. After watching other insects come and go she comes up with a very cunning plan! Brilliantly animated characters and verse that children will love are set in real photographed locations in New Zealand's native forest. Created for young children, the simple rhyme and fun words will have children interested and reading along. The story fosters awareness and appreciation of the natural environment in this young age group and the illustrations have the potential to generate discussion. Adults will enjoy it also!

I've been writing bits and pieces since I was a child. Some simple stories, ideas, poetry, some complex, especially for academic purposes. The birth of my first grandchild motivated me to work within specific themes with a young audience in mind: this is one of the outcomes. I am an educator and an environmentalist, so how cool it is to bring these together to encourage in children a love for reading and learning.
