The Midnight Adventures of Ruru and Kiwi

Author(s): Clare Scott; Amy Haarhoff

NZ & Te Reo

The delightful rhyming story of Ruru and Kiwi, who host a midnight forest party for their friends.


Ruru and Kiwi went into the bush, wrapped snug in night's velvety black.


They took some runny manuka honey tied up in a flax-woven sack.


Drawing on a cast of nocturnal New Zealand creatures, with award-winning illustrations by Amy Haarhoff, Clare Scott's story imagines Edward Lear's famous nonsense poem taking place in a moonlit forest in Aotearoa.
