Little Kiwi, Whose Nest is Best?

Author(s): Bob Darroch

Little Kiwi can't sleep - Little Sister keeps kicking and Dad is snoring! Little Kiwi decides to find himself a better nest. It's too lonesome by himself so Little Kiwi joins Kaka - but the Kaka chicks are far too noisy. The Keas' mountain nest is too cold, Morepork's is too high, Blue Duck's is too damp and Little Kiwi can't even squeeze into Fantail's tiny nest. Will Little Kiwi ever find the perfect place to rest?
