"Bella's Fringe", Marie Munro’s and Rachel Doragh’s latest book is with the printer!
Remember Jacob from “Nana’s Shed”? Bella is his sister and she’s a bit of a rebel.
Bella knows her own mind and there is one thing she knows for certain – haircuts are out! So Bella's hair just grows and grows.
This humorous story about Bella’s hair chips away at the gender stereotyping of young girls and includes new search activities in te reo Māori, similar to those in “Nana’s Shed”, and extends the counting in English and te reo to 20.
“Bella’s Fringe” will be available in time for Christmas. Watch out for the November book launch details.
