FIRST TIME EVER! A STORY ABOUT NEW GUINEA'S EXTRAORDINARY 'DANCING BIRDS OF PARADISE' - FOR CHILDREN! Macca the Kookaburra's accidental journey to a strange land opens up a whole new world of possibilities where his passion for dance is celebrated. Unlike his life leading up to this point, Macca isn't shunned for his talent. He's unashamedly embraced into the new culture and praised for being true to himself. The Dancing Birds of Paradise (BOP) aims to teach children the importance of embracing their uniqueness and to be open to stepping into unfamiliar territory to find their place in the world. For movers and shakers aged 3+, this book is a perfect read-aloud to inspire children through vibrantly coloured illustrations, movement, and the unusually majestic and often quirky dancing of these stunning creatures.

Revealing the world's most extraordinary birds." $1 from every book purchase will go to the Raja Ampat Research and Conservation Centre in New Guinea.

Autorenporträt
Sally Waghorn is a full-time working Mum and full-time animal lover with years of experience volunteering her time at various rescue centres and animal sanctuaries across Australia. Cleaning up wombat poo, deboning squid for turtles and building fencing for wallabies are all jobs she cherished for many years before becoming a mother. After watching the 'Birds of Paradise' project by Cornell University on YouTube over ten years ago, an idea was born. This developed into a book which Sally dreams one day will be turned into a children's movie full of singing and dancing.
