The
Story
In the Kingdom of Zu-Zu Macca, all is not well. Hard times are on the land. The people, led by Miss Matilda and her son Boysie, decide to represent the people in petitioning King Zu Zu who lives in his palace with Queen Peppermint, Princess Roses Flowers and Prince Mahoe. The Queen is sympathetic to the people’s plight. The King however needs some enlightening. Then word comes of the invasion by the Duke and Duchess of Cubbitch, who have come to claim a debt incurred, they say, by King Zu-Zu’s ancestor. Can the debt be paid? What will the Cubbitch do to Zu-Zu Macca? It is of concern to everyone and as in all “village life,” there are those who have hopes for a brighter tomorrow and those who doubt that any good can come of it. Talk keeps circulating about a place of the White Crocodile and a Pearl of Great Price. If found, would these help Zu-Zu Macca in its time of trouble? Queen Peppermint drafts her husband the King and their two time- wasting children to go on the search along with the good Matilda and her son Boysie. What do they find? What is the connection to Pearl, an old woman who nobody except Miss Matilda, pays any mind? In the end, Zu-Zu Macca faces it destiny. A solution is found, although some are not so pleased. However, as is customary - things end happily for Zu-Zu Macca
