Pete the Peacock and the Christmas Storm - 2nd Edition (HARDCOVER) | Institutional Edition

In the heart of the Australian bush, Pete the Peacock is determined to create the perfect Christmas.     Decorations sparkle, the farm buzzes with excitement, and Pete is busy directing his friends — from Boris the bull to the elegant swans.  

But when a fierce summer storm rolls in, roaring winds and pounding rain threaten to wash it all away.     Lights tangle, branches bend, and the Christmas tree is in real danger.     With feathers soaked but spirit unshaken, Pete rallies his friends to protect what truly matters.  

Together, they discover that the brightest part of Christmas isn't what's on the tree — it's who stands beside you when things get rough.  

✔ Bedtime reading and classroom storytime
