It seems like everyone is against Pete. Mum left, his smirky sister teases him constantly, and Dad' s gonna whack his butt if he doesn' t try out for the under fourteen rugby team. But rugby' s a dangerous game when Wiremu is playing in the other team. He' s bigger, stronger and faster than everyone, and he' s not afraid to bend the rules - on and off the field! The new school principal isn' t helping either. From what Pete can see he hates kids and he hates tikanga Maori - something Pete' s school has always had at its heart. On top of that, the principal' s annoying daughter Wendy has joined Pete' s class and wants to be his friend - stuff that! She' s a straight up weirdo!When the unthinkable happens to his best mate and everything seems impossible, Pete finds that help can come from most surprising places.
