In this sequel to the popular Edward the Emu, Edward and his mate Edwina are the proud parents of ten little emu eggs. "Don't get depressed. I'll find a job, you stay on the nest," says Edwina to her stunned mate. And so Edwina sets out to find a job in this lighthearted offering from down under. Rhythmic, rhyming verse by Sheena Knowles and hilarious illustrations by Rod Clement make this an entertaining picture book that is sure to find a place in the hearts of readers everywhere.

This book is one of my favourites, after the original Edward the Emu. The book rhymes and my first grade students get a kick out of Edwina's determination and adventures. The book does leave a lovely message about how being a mother is the very best job. I always make sure that I follow this up with a conversation about how it is an important job, but its not the only job for women. All in all its a lovely story with a warm message. The illustrations are delightful.
The cover of the book is not really attractive and neither are those within. Kids might get frightened of the big green ugly bird on the cover and refuse to read.
Contents-wise, the story is written in rhymes, good way to introduce children to that genre and poetry.
Children are also introduced to various kinds of occupations and realize in the end that it is important to share responsibilities. Good value for children.
An Australian friend gave my son this book when he was born. I've been reading it to him for 10 months, now. As he got more coordinated, he started handing it to me to read. It has great illustrations and rhythmic text. We loved it so much we looked for more of her books & found Edward the Emu. We read them everyday.
