BEAUT BOOKS FOR BLOKES
With Father's Day looming next month New Holland Publishers have their timing spot on with these two beaut books for blokes.


BAKING FOR BLOKES - DIY in the kiwi kitchen
Steve Joll - New Holland - $29.99

Steve believes that any bloke can bake, with simple straight-forward recipes, with ingredients that can be found in the store cupboard
·    Baking isn’t just for women – and through his website www.blokeswhobake.co.nz (the inspiration for the book) – he has met lots of like-minded blokey bakers, who epitomize the modern man! (combining being a busy dad, playing rugby, doing the DIY and whipping up a banana cake!)
·    Steve lives in Wellington and is the Breeze radio breakfast presenter





SEARCHING FOR GROUNDSWELL
A New Zealand Surfer's Road Trip

Kiwi surfer, Paul Hersey, sets out to find the country’s most iconic waves and secret surf breaks.
