Little Kooks' Laugh

Little Kook can't find his iconic laugh. On his search he meets new bird friends and hears all the amazing sounds they like to make.

For ages 2-6, Little Kook's Laugh is an adorable way to teach kids about our Australian bird life.

About Maddi & Tim

We love reading to our two little munchkins - Luna and Nova. We also love birds, and are creatives at heart - writing a book just came naturally with BINKABU's evolution.

We have spent the last few years writing and developing this children's book. It's our first, but hopefully not our last!

Maddi is the founder of BINKABU and we now run the company as a team, and Little Kook's Laugh is just one step in our mission to 'celebrate birds!'

About Aliaga

We searched far and wide to find an illustrator to match our earring style and found Aliaga Mirguseinov, from Lithuania.

His charming style is the perfect balance of handmade cuteness and clean shapes that we needed to bring Little Kook's Laugh to life. Little Kook's story is defined by Aliaga's masterful bold, bright imagery of the characters and Australian landscapes.

Little Kook's Laugh

Beautiful little book. I purchased for my great grandchildren as their father loves to read to them all the time and they will enjoy this, especially as they live in a country town.

A beautiful book about birds for the littlies

“Little Kook’s Laugh”, purchased for my young grandson, is a touching tome about our native Aussie birds, providing an important early insight into their individual appearances, characters and sounds. The book was very well received!!
The gorgeous tote bag and bookmark were a lovely added bonus, due to my early ordering.
Also, an added thank you, Maddi and Tim, for making it possible to obtain the book before Christmas! xx
