Description

The one thing Jessie wants for Christmas is a bike. A YELLOW bike "the colour of cheese on toast or a duck's beak." There it is under the Christmas tree. NOT the bike Jessie wants. She refuses to look at it. Eventually the grandparents arrive with their present. And Jessie has A GOOD IDEA! This quirky story celebrates a child's powerful tools - imagination and initiative - for tackling problems and relating to the world. "Jessie's Yellow Bike" has been described as: "A story that will make the child in all of us smile." Madeleine Slavick, editor and poet. "Captivating for the young ones and fun for the oldies too! Love the " find the duck" in every illustration. Kids will love that." Victoria Deane, diplomat, lawyer. Pauline Bellamy, artist/ illustrator, read the script to her grand-daughter. Next day Pauline heard her chanting over and over, yellow ducks beaks, yellow ducks beaks. "She was enchanted!"

Author Biography:

Christine Hunt Daniell has always loved words, and writing that celebrates imagination and initiative for tackling problems and relating to the world. These words are dedicated to her children and grandchildren, and their immense imagination and initiative. She DID have a Christmas pony/swing catastrophe as a child, but the rest of this story is pure make-up! Other writing by Christine Hunt Daniell includes the prose-poem "Do The Hills Talk?", poems and stories for the New Zealand School Journal, children's TV, and four adult oral history books: "Something In The Hills," "Speaking A Silence," "I'm 95 - Any Objection?" and "Just An Orange Fro Christmas." She has an MA (Hons) in English from Canterbury University, New Zealand, lives in rural Wairarapa, New Zealand, and calls the hills of Nelson and Wairarapa her home.
