Walter and Manaaki are teenage takahe. They are curious. They are adventurous. They are TROUBLESOME!
In October 2019, a wayward takahe couple was recaptured ten days after escaping from their predator-free sanctuary at Tawharanui Regional Park. Their adventure provided the inspiration for Sally Sutton's humorous story.
Children will delight in the cheeky and daring spirit of Walter and Manaaki. The book is beautifully illustrated by Jenny Cooper, and includes interesting facts about the takahe at the end of the story.
