Publisher's Synopsis
In their debut picture book, Emmy Award winning duo Mike Erskine-Kellie and Susan McLennan have created a laugh-out-loud story filled with heart. The metafiction approach (speaking directly to 'you') and fun story together with the antic exuberance of Cale Atkinson's bold and colourful illustrations make this a lively read-aloud that will keep even the youngest children engaged. Though a book about finding the perfect birthday present is itself the perfect birthday present, it's also simply a delightful read for any time of year. It also offers an excellent character education lesson on perseverance.
