Margo The Magpie's Wish

By Terri Walls

Why can't Margo be like the other birds?

Margo the magpie can't help comparing herself. She wishes she could laugh like a kookaburra and shimmer like a rainbow lorikeet.

But after a gentle chat with wise Daddy Magpie, Margo begins to see her own special qualities...and makes one final wish.

A heartwarming Australian picture book for ages 3-6 about self-acceptance, confidence and celebrating individuality.

Told in rhyme and featuring beautiful, hand-painted illustrations of iconic Australian birds, this uplifting story is perfect for bedtime reading, classroom discussions, preschool and kindergarten libraries, or as a meaningful gift for little nature lovers.
