Wee Willie Wagtail is quick as a flash - diving left and right, snapping up flies by the front door, flitting under branches and watching the children slap, slap, slap.
Sometimes he sits on the gate to chatter and scold. Sometimes he dives at Maggie, who dares to butt in. And when evening comes he sits in his tree and sings, wooing his sweetheart from the tree next door - because Wise Winnie Wagtail loves Willie best.
Told in warm rhyming verse and illustrated throughout with original paintings, this is a light-hearted story about an Australian native bird and his cheeky interaction with children, written to be read aloud and shared.
One of four books celebrating the uniqueness of Australia and its wildlife.
