The Fantabulous Animal Orchestra

NaturePrimary SchoolPicture BooksFiction
Written By Kim Manunui

A thought-provoking yet fun story with an environmental theme by bestselling, award-winning New Zealand author Donovan Bixley.

Hear that glorious chorus, it’s soaring uproarious, With the jingle of jungle bells pinging!

Discover a fantabulous world where each creature plays its part in perfect harmony, with a honking of horns, a slither of scales and a bumbling buzz in the air.

A joy to read aloud, The Fantabulous Animal Orchestra starts off with a roar, but gets quieter and quieter as the animals leave. The orchestra reunites with a flourish, and the story finishes with a bursting, beautiful gatefold.

A celebration of biodiversity, this very special book's sumptuously detailed artwork is accompanied by melodious words. This is the wildly talented Donovan Bixley at his best.

“From the cover to the surprising fold out pages at the end of the book this full-colour, large format, vibrant picture book will delight young readers.”

Hi, I’m Kim and I work with a great team to help individuals, as well as small and not so small businesses get their message, product and services to the world using digital media and creating wonderful websites that don’t cost the earth.

I was born in Canada, and grew up around Vancouver and the mountains of British Columbia. My love of pristine environments led me to New Zealand and eventually to the mountains, lakes and rivers of the central North Island which is home. My family’s heritage is here, and it’s from here that Korio traverses the planet.

The digital world is never static and neither are we.

And I say ‘we’ because I work with an awesome group of talented people who I gather together as required to complete a project.  Whatever your business, not-for-profit or individual needs are we gather the best team to get the job done.

Collaboratively we are creative, share sustainable values and work hard for great outcomes because that’s the buzz of satisfaction that drives us.

If you have an audience and market to reach, we can make that happen. Creative design, words that work and smart behind the scenes stuff that cuts through the online noise. We’ll design your website and then build it. We’ll manage the content as well as all your hosting needs. We can handle your online advertising so you get noticed,
and we’ll manage your social media presence so you get the clicks, likes and engagement to grow your business. All within the budget you set, because none of this needs to cost the earth.  And the job doesn’t stop when your website goes live. We are your virtual business partner.
