The Bomb
This story is the te reo Maori translation of The Bomb. In this story about being true to oneself, a boy searches for the secret to doing the perfect bomb into the water.
A fun story that encourages children to be themselves and do things their way, knowing that it will work out and they will be accepted just as they are. Sacha and Josh's two precious picture books have been well received and acknowledged in children's book awards. The story centres on an Aotearoa New Zealand icon - dive bombs - seen all around New Zealand off bridges, wharves, at the beach, at rivers and in summer bomb competitions. This story is available in te reo Maori and English language editions.

First time using book hero last week and though I was sceptical , the two business books I needed were only available on book hero so I gave it a try. Before I got home the following day the books were already at my home !! That's super efficient ! I'm proud to be supporting a local business that outperforms the big players ! Well done bookhero !
