Ellie Copter: Nee Naw and Friends

Deano has done it again! Not only does he continue to bring loveable Nee Naw to life but this time he has added a helicopter called Ellie Copter. This is a sweet read with the power of rhyme and a warning about playing with fire. Paul Beavis is also once again helping bring Deano’s characters to life with colourful and elaborate illustrations. The children I have read this too remember Nee Naw’s catchy tune and slogan and were very excited to have this read to them. The online video of this story is also a must for all reading this book.

This book will appeal to children of all ages.
