Annual 3 : A Miscellany From Aotearoa New Zealand
Hardback Edition: 1
A unique, entertaining miscellany of all-new material for 9-13 year olds in one beautifully presented package. Alongside familiar names (Paul Beavis, Giselle Clarkson, Ant Sang, Gavin Bishop, Kimberly Andrews, Tim Denee, Johanna Knox, Dylan Horrocks, Josh Morgan), you'll fnd welcome surprises: a new song from Troy Kingi, gothic fction by Airini Beautrais, a te reo Maori crossword from Ben Brown, an adaptation of Maurice Gee's The Champion presented in comic format, and work from emerging talents J. Wiremu Kane and Austin Milne. The editors have stayed faithful to their original intent: to reach an audience that's curious, discerning, up for anything ... with commissioned content that refects the diversity of experience across Aotearoa New Zealand to reach as many kinds of readers as possible. Annual 3 is playful and smart and packed with content - a book for the whole family. Where else would you fnd a poem about not kissing in church, a pattern for a knitted brain, a kakapo in a kimono for colouring, an essay about Harry Potter, and a comic about head lice? Not to mention the board game Camp Kuku and "The Traditional Big Spread of Aotearoa NZ" (remember the Biscuits and Slices craziness?).
