About Kiko’s Big Adventure
Kiko’s Big Adventure is a children’s book series inspired by the extraordinary wildlife and natural environments of Fiji.
Kiko is a Masked Shining-Parrot, a colourful parrot found only in Fiji. Through his adventures, children meet Fiji’s animals – including many species found nowhere else in the world – while discovering the islands, reefs, rivers, mangroves and communities they call home.
Each story combines adventure with nature education, encouraging children to learn, draw, colour and explore along the way. At the heart of the series are simple but important lessons about curiosity, compassion, kindness to animals and caring for the environment.
Learn. Explore. Create. Care.
