Description

“Look in the water, Ma! Golly, oh gee! Something in the sea is touching me!”

You’ll squawk, screech, yelp ... and laugh out loud at the surprises for all on this funny-sunny family day at the beach.

When a small child goes to the seaside with her Mum and Ma, she is unprepared for 'things' floating in the water. Ma explains what each one is and that it is nothing to be afraid of ... then gets a big fright herself when Mum grabs her ankle!

Nga mea kei ro Moana e whakapa mai ana! by Linda, Jane Keegan is a delightful tale of discovery and humour, perfect for a sunny day at the beach.
