The Gift

Author/Illustrator: Michael Speechley

Publisher: Penguin

Suitable: Year 2 to Year 5


When the house across the road from Rosie looks abandoned, she decides to give her mysterious neighbour a gift. But this gift is unusual, different and something unexpected. It would be something her mother would be proud of. Championing acts of kindness is at the heart of Michael Speehley's picture book and should be within all our hearts.
