Critics Review
Review to come.– [PRINT] Magpies, review
Libby Hathorn remains one of Australia’s leading children’s authors because she continually writes to capture the ideas and issues that are critical for children in their current contexts. This book written with her daughter shares the experiences that all parents and grandparents encounter with the oppositional language of early childhood.
The book is beautifully illustrated and written with humour and rhyme and will delight all generations when it is read at bedtime. It could also be a great text for older siblings to read to the younger members of the family or in the classroom setting it will enable teachers to explore the benefits of positive behavior.About The Author
