CREATIVE CUTS - Author visits Little Book Nook

Fix it Don’t Throw it -  the KangaMoo & Crew Story by Dan Munday comes to The Little Book Nook, Palmwoods on Saturday, Feb 7, at 10am for a free event in the courtyard.

Fixing things was a way of life on the Yandina farm where Dan grew up—creative, necessary and resourceful. That mindset later shaped his career designing Survivor challenges around the world.

A few years later—watching a chook and a kookaburra squabble—the word Chookaburra popped into his head and made him laugh. Soon came Kangamoo, Crabbit and Raterpiller. As the characters multiplied, their world began to take shape featuring two kids, Frank and Stein, who build new toys from broken ones.

Think Dr Seuss meets Monty Python, this series of books have heart and purpose. Illustrating them himself, Dan brings the characters to life.

Now Dan talks at local schools about re-use and repurposing, inspiring the next generation to fix things rather than throw them away.
