Waiting On Wednesday: Three Green Dreams by Roshni Menon


Three Green Dreams, written by Roshni Menon and illustrated by Yusof Majid and Seeling Tan (Small Print, 11 August 2012)

"A little girl goes on a glorious green journey full of sights familiar yet unusual, curious yet fun. Where will she go? Who will she meet? It's a green adventure not to be missed, so, step inside . . . and join her green dreams . . ."

Looking forward to this "all Malaysian" picture book!
