While searching the forest for the perfect home, a weta encounters obstacles and predators.
In the bushland, a weta is looking for the perfect hidey hole home. But each time weta finds what seems like the perfect spot, it is occupied by other hungry creatures, predators, and even another weta. Readers will enjoy learning about the creatures of the New Zealand bushland while dramatic tension keeps them turning the page in this lyrically written,detailed and realistically illustrated picture book about these fascinating creatures.
