Whetu Toa and the Magician – Steph Matuku

Whetu Toa and the Magician follows Whetu, who becomes the animal keeper at a magician’s house and farm. Tasked with caring for a golden ram, three lazy pigs, talking horses, a cowardly bull, and Errant, the magician’s arrogant white rabbit assistant, Whetu faces a magical mishap when Errant creates a carnivorous lamb he cannot control. Afraid to face the magician, Errant vanishes, leaving Whetu to step in as the magician’s new assistant just in time for the Royal Performance. Chaos ensues when Errant returns seeking revenge, and it’s up to Whetu to save the day—and the king.
