The Dahlia Kids Book Launch
We did it! We wrote a book! The Dahlia Kids welcome you to their book launch.
When: 11 November 2024, 2pm
Where: Ngawha Innovation and Enterprise Park
The Dahlia Kids will host an afternoon with a talk, a quiz with prizes and nibbles and pink lemonade to celebrate their achievements on writing and publishing their new book. It is a 244 page hardback book full of colourful photos and follows their unschooling adventures on their true kiwi lifestyle block on an ex-girlguides campground called Trefoil Park. Here they have set up their own dahlia pick your own business and dahlia breeding programme. Now they have written a book all about their adventures, sharing their dahlia knowledge, New dahlia cultivars, unschooling lifestyle and inspirational outlook on life.
This event is FREE however tickets must be reserved in the shop at www.greenfootedkiwi.co.nz... (a koha for the Dahlia Kids' efforts would be very well received)
