The Wildest Book Week Ever!  By Heath McKenzie

 

Book Week is approaching and so it only seems right to promote Heath McKenzie’s new book, ‘The Wildest Book Week Ever!’ Heath has done it again! This is a humorous book about the hype of Book Week. 

It identifies us all and how we go about dressing up for that big school event, Book Week. You will giggle as you see familiar characters. There are creative costumes, classic costumes and teachers in costumes. 

 

Who will win best dressed? 

Find out in, ‘The Wildest Book Week Ever!’ by Heath McKenzie. 

 

This is a light-hearted read and a quick and easy bedtime book. This story will have your child wanting to read it over and over again.
