Days of Warmth

Days of Warmth written & illustrated by Gregg Dreise (Puffin) HB RRP $14.99 ISBN 9781761340567

This board book for children aged 0 to 5 years, has been created by a Kamilaroi and Euahlayi man so the illustrations are decorated with indigenous drawings and patterns. The book combines early learning concepts, such as days of the week,  animals and family using simple and rhythmic text. Australian animals such as a goanna, sugar glider and quoll are featured. All are young and all experience emotions and feelings but are comforted by members of their family from mum to Pop until ‘One Sunday, little fruit bat woke up feeling alone… but her family was together.

The book both entertains and educates young readers.
