Kimi the Kekeno's Big Adventure

A funny and heart-filled ocean adventure from emerging talent Shelley Burne-Field, this is her second middle-grade novel for young readers.

Kimi the kekeno (New Zealand fur seal) is setting out on the biggest adventure of his life--a long and daring journey to the magical Stone Circle. Along the way, Kimi and his friends encounter a giant squid in need of help, a wise old stingray, and a very hungry hammerhead shark.

Can shy, gentle Kimi find the courage to face his fears and make it to the Stone Circle's moon ceremony in time?

From the author of Brave Kahu and the Porangi Magpie, this is a warm and uplifting story about friendship, bravery, and learning to love ourselves just as we are.
