Brightly
coloured illustrations bring to life this New Zealand take on the traditional
song Ten Green Bottles with one small
kiwi ‘falling off the wall’ until there are none left. But – wait – that’s not
the end of the story because the kiwi all end up in bed having a story read to
them. Half of the book is in English and the other in te reo Maori with a bonus
extra of a CD with words sung by Pio Terei.
