The Boy and the Cherry Tree - Book of the Week

New Zealand Author and Illustrator team, Mark and Rowan Sommerset have created yet another beautiful crafted and delightful picture book, The Boy and the Cherry Tree. I love this book and I'm sure you will too!

A young boy dreams of climbing the beautiful tree across the river and tasting its sweet red fruit. His plans are stalled each time by an anxious bird who warns of the dangers.
Will the boy ever realize his dream?

Winner – Best Children's Book: PANZ New Zealand Book Design Awards 

This husband and wife super team have also written the incredibly popular Baa Baa Smart sheep, Two little bugs, Cork on the ocean and I love Lemonade. All of which are available from Victory Primary School Library. 

Check out Mark and Rowan's idyllic lifestyle on Waiheke Island -   I'm sure it's the inspiration behind their magical picture books
