<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>"The Reason for Christchurch" is a bilingual English and Te Reo Maori sing-a-long book for preschoolers. This song is written by Loopy Tunes, who are a sister duo based in Christchurch that run live, interactive music and movement sessions for preschoolers and their caregivers. This is the third book in their Rainbow Children's Book Collection.</p><p>The vision for Loopy Tunes has always been to provide a space that offers musical sessions as an affordable option for families within a local community. Their music sessions have tamariki dancing and singing along to some of their original waiata, as well as some well-known tunes, including "Pēpi Mako" ("Baby Shark" in te reo Māori).</p><p>Loopy Tunes are excited to bring you the fourth instalment of the Rainbow Children's Book Collection, "Ko te Pūtake mō te Kirihimete/The Reason for Christmas". This has been a collaborative effort with Christchurch artist and illustrator, Rosina Cater.</p>
