But this time Malia found a story book in the library that was to change Zuza's life forever. It was not an ordinary storybook. Annoyed at the thick story book, Zuza begins to read. However the book takes him into another world, a Kingdom called Napolia ruled by the wicked witch Acris. This was no ordinary Kingdom.
