It's the holidays, and Awatea is staying in the country with his grandparents and uncles – next door to Mrs Carol’s house, which is said to be haunted. Awatea’s uncles challenge him to spend a night there, but can he do it?
Meantime, they go to stay at the beach, where he meets the Rumbles and their talking parrot, Carrot. Awatea and Carrot go exploring, and Carrot takes Awatea to a hidden tree hut, reveals a secret and treasure and teases Awatea’s uncles. When Awatea returns home, he realises an uncle has set up Mrs Carol’s house to make it seem haunted. So Awatea turns the tables and plays a spooky trick of his own.
This is the first book in the Awatea series followed by Awatea and the Kawa Gang.
This is the English edition of Te Taonga Huna o Awatea.
