If his nose is pressed to a book…

Nailing the gift game is a breeze with a captivating read, and luckily, Whitcoulls is your go-to for some seriously awesome page-turners. Al Brown's "Eat Up New Zealand (The Bach Edition)" is the ultimate cookbook for the dad who's all about whipping up the freshest catch of the day!
