Rosie's Holiday

Author: Rachel Pank

Rosie loves the security of her own home, garden, toys, and the cats next door. She does not wish to go away on holiday, especially as all the things she wants to take won’t fit into the car. But of course the holiday is fun, and soon Rosie does not want to go home. The exploratory joy of this small child, as she arrives home and rediscovers all her favourites, the garden, paddling pool, stars and sky, leaps from the page. She is delighted to be back! The text and warm, unpretentious illustrations capture a growing experience here.
