About Marvin Makes a Friend
Nadia Lim returns with her second children’s picture book!
“Marvin’s not a chick anymore, it’s MARVELLOUS to see him grow. His feathers are now speckled and sleek, and one day he started to CROW!”
A sequel to celebrity cooks Nadia Lim’s bestselling debut children’s book, Marvellous Marvin. No longer a newly hatched chick, teenage Marvin is trying to find his flock.
He meets many animals on the farm, but will any of them be Marvin’s friend, and who will be Marvin’s family?
Includes family photos, farm and food facts, and an egg-cellent Nadia Lim corn fritter recipe. Children will enjoy following Marvin’s journey, now that he is a handsome, cocky young rooster, who doesn’t always make friends easily. Marvin Makes Friends is beautifully illustrated by one of New Zealand’s top children’s illustrators, Fifi Colston.
