Summary: An illustrated story about gender fluidity in a school setting. "Uhm, the poi is for girls, eah!" Rangi loves doing kapa haka but performing poi is his favourite--even though his classmates say it's just for girls. What an assumption that is! When the female leader for the poi falls sick before a school performance, Rangi steps into her place. How will the other students and the audience react? "Surely a boy can't lead the poi?"
