Hatch & Match

Have fun with colours, patterns, and counting in a search-and-match adventure filled with vibrant, colorful illustrations and a bouncy rhyming text.

Every morning, same but new,
hear the COCK-A-DOODLE-DOO!
Hens jump down, stretch their legs.
Can you help them find their eggs?

Amid a kaleidoscope of colours, chickens with spots, stripes and zigzags are scritching and scratching and looking for their eggs. There are eggs in a haystack, under a tree, inside a barn, and even tucked in a shoe. Who can help the hens find the eggs that match them before they hatch into chicks? From award-winning New Zealand author-illustrator Ruth Paul comes an energetic concept book that doubles as a celebration of same-but-different creatures everywhere.
