The Bowerbird

Illustrated by Catherine Rayner

A stunningly illustrated book with a wonderful rhyming tale for little ones, from the creators of The Go-Away Bird.

The Bowerbird is the irresistible tale of Bert – a small bird with a very big heart, from Number One bestselling author Julia Donaldson and illustrator Catherine Rayner, winner of the Kate Greenaway Medal for Illustration. Bert the bowerbird has made the most perfect bower nest, complete with a pretty purple flower, and is hoping it will help him to meet the bird of his dreams. But will all his efforts to create a beautiful display be enough to win over Nanette?

Available sessions: 3.30 to 4.10 pm, 4.10 to 4.50 pm and 4.50 to 5.30 pm
