- About the Book
-
The magic fair has a lot more than just fairy floss and fun rides, it has cakes that jump and pies that fly.
Enter — but beware! Kayla and her cousin Peter soon find out that not all the surprises are nice ones. When Peter is mean to Kayla the Fair takes matters into its own hands in a very unusual way.
About the Waarda Series
Waarda, Nyungar for talking and sharing stories and information, is an exciting new Indigenous children’s series.
