children, parents, and rabbits!

take charge of bathtime.

Helper and Helper

 By JoyCowley,
illustrated by Gavin Bishop

A new book in Joy Cowleys

internationally bestselling series about
friends Snake and Lizard!

Two very different creatures learn about the give-

and-take of friendship in these warm and funny
stories set in the desert.

Snake and Lizard are loved by six year olds

through to ninety year oldsthey have a place in
every New Zealand family.
Snake is elegant and calm, and a little self-centred;
Lizard is exuberant and irrepressible. With Helper
and Helper, Joy Cowley has written a funny, warm,
and wise new installment in the relationship of this
popular pair as Snake and Lizard nd their
friendship tested in new ways. The stories are
beautifully illustrated by Gavin Bishop in warm and
clear colours of the desert.
 Everyone fell in love with this foolish,
argumentative pair when their rst book of
stories won the NZ Post Book of the Year
award. And they continue to entrance us
