What are you looking for? asked Wolf.
I'm looking for tomorrow, Rabbit sighed.
But I've looked everywhere,
and it's nowhere to be found.
Will Rabbit's friends help him to see what is wonderful about today, before it's too late?

She was Children's Writer in Residence at Otago University in 2011 and President of the New Zealand Society of Authors from 2013-2017. Kyle grew up in Brisbane before travelling the world and eventually settled in Millers Flat, Central Otago with her wife Marion, two cats and 24 chickens.

Laura Bee (Illustrator) Laura Bee is a freelance illustrator who works from her cosy and funky little studio in Wellington, New Zealand. She specialises in publishing, character design, editorial, illustrative design elements/bespoke illustrations and thanks to this digital world we live in has worked with a wide range of international and local clients.

A homebody by nature, if she's not drawing, designing or painting, she'll be found reading art books and graphic novels, watching documentaries or spending time with her cat.
