Hiwi the Kiwi Goes Fishing

Based on the enormously successful show that has now been in over 400 New Zealand schools, this lively book contains songs, stories and invaluable messages about water safety and good fishing practice. Supported by Black Magic Tackle, New Zealand Fishing News, which devotes a page every issue to Hiwi the Kiwi, Fishy Business Limited, Kilwell Sports and New Zealand Sport Fishing, this is the perfect book or Kiwi kids and their families going fishing. Mark de Lacy, aka The Minstrel, whose earlier book Hiwi the Kiwi sold over 30,000 copies, is so committed to water safety and sustainable recreational fishing that he has decided to devote himself to taking the projects \”Fish for the Future\” and \”Water Safety\” to as many New Zealand Primary schools as possible. The show is a hit, with schools saying this is the best show they’ve had. Mark and his wife Chrissy, who also takes part in the show, live in the Far North, where the weather is great and the fishing even better. ‘ Kai moana, food from the sea ; Kai moana to feed the family; Fish for the future, and there will always be; Kai moana for you and me.’
