The Great Cold

The great cold is coming. It’s tickling the toes of the animals and chasing the tail feathers of the birds. It’s creeping into their hideaway and making even the strongest shiver. Alone, the blind goanna and the flightless crow are weak, but when they work together the power of their friendship will save the day.

An exciting story told in the traditional style.

About the Waarda series

Above all, it is a collection of fun, interesting and diverse first chapter books for new readers.
