Pip the takahē bird is lost in the forest and searches for a place to sleep, but the other animals' sleeping spots are wrong for him. In this wonderful bedtime story, children will journey through the New Zealand forest and see where the various New Zealand animal species rest, learning lots of adjectives along the way. Children will identify with Pip's fear of being lost and alone and with the comfort of finding home and family in this vibrantly and gorgeously illustrated book.
