Aotearoa New Zealand's favourite witch is having trouble with her kai. How can she stop the juicy morsels from bleating all day and all night? A hilarious picture book from the wildly creative singer and entertainer Anika Moa that is sure to cast a spell on your heart!

Aue! The Witch of Maketu is feeling grumpy and stink. The twelve juicy lambs she’s kept for her winter kai are bleating all day and night. She can’t get any beauty sleep! Uncle Hemi, a terrifying taniwha, helps the witch come up with a cunning and evil plan to keep those little lambs quiet. But will the woolly ones do what they’re told?

Awash with wickedness and full to the brim with Anika's cheeky humour, The Witch of Maketu and the Bleating Lambs is the perfect tale for children and grownups to read together - it's for anyone who loves to see horrid villains get their comeuppance. They'll be spellbound by Rebecca ter Borg's gorgeously spooky and magical illustrations, complete with funny details and critters to spot on every page, and can even follow the QR code to read and sing along with Anika Moa.

Watch out for more adventures of the Witch of Maketu!

Written by Anika Moa and illustrated by Rebecca Ter Borg
