About this event

  • Event lasts 1 hour 30 minutes

Join award-winning author, Beverley Mcwilliams, as we launch her delightful new picture book, Cassowary Dad!

Follow Cassowary Dad as he nurtures and teaches his chicks about their rainforest home.

Tap, tap, CRACK!

Three stripy chicks hatch …

After patiently incubating his mate's eggs, Cassowary Dad must raise the chicks alone. Cassowary Dad nurtures, teaches and protects his chicks. But looking after three chicks is not easy. When a cyclone tears through their rainforest home, will this devoted dad be able to save his family?

South Australian author, Kristin Martin will be on hand to lead our very special launch as we find out all about Bev’s collaboration with the CSIRO and this heart-warming tale about the magnificent Australian cassowary.

Light refreshments and craft activities included.

Copies of Cassowary Dad will be available for purchase courtesy of Shakespeare's Bookshop
