      Des Hunt a famous writer presents his newest novel 'Project  Huia'

       Project Huia is a book about two kids (Jim and Mavis) in  1947 who see a huia flying into the Manawatu Gorge. As Huia are are meant to be extinct they children go to take a photo of the Huia in the Manawatu Gorge. Some other people tried to kill then sell the Huia for money and they managed to kill the last Huia on earth. Jim and Mavis hid the Huia (Olivia) in the Gorge tunnels so she could not be found or sold. 
      Later in 1987 Mavis is dead and Jim decides to show Olivia to the rest of the world with the help of his Grandson Logan and Anna (A scientist working on breading the Huia back to life) Jim tells the story of how the Huia was found then killed. Jim, Logan and Anna go back into the tunnels to try and find the Huia. After lots of struggles the Huia is found and brought to Anna's lab and it is now up to Anna to bring the Huia back to life. 
        Project Huia is a must read book for 7 years and up as it is full of adventure and mysteries and lots of unexpected twists. I recommend this book for your WISH LIST!!
