Tap, tap, CRACK! Three stripy chicks hatch … After patiently incubating his mate’s eggs, Cassowary Dad must raise the chicks alone. Cassowary Dad nurtures, teaches and protects his chicks. But looking after three chicks is not easy. When a cyclone tears through their rainforest home, will this devoted dad be able to save his family? A heart-warming tale about the magnificent Australian cassowary. Reading level varies from child to child, but we recommend this book for ages 5 to 9.
