When God realises that all the good musicians are dead, he puts Mozart in charge of assembling a super-group of angels for a one-off concert that will show the musicians back on Earth what good music really sounds like.

Written and illustrated by Cullen Masters, Raidan Pei­Fatau, Sililo Puleanga, Sam Tofa­Timoteo, and Ngahe Sione.

Also included is a Samoan language version of this story; translated by Samuel Tanielu and narrated by the students.

With thanks to Siobhan Harrod, Helen Newell and Deputy Principal Laurence Caltaux.

In June 2014, Kiwa in conjunction with the Ministry of Education brought the 48HR SLAM to St Pauls College. Under the guidance of Steven Renata, Munro Te Whata, Behnaz Farzami, Aidee Walker and Luke Nola, five students undertook an intensive two days of Digital Storytelling, culminating in this digital story told through striking artwork and narrated in the students’ own voices.

The Kiwa team then took this amazing work and assembled it in the form of the Experiential Digital Book that is in front of you. Swipe through and immerse yourself in the story, and tap on the pictures to explore hidden elements.

Features include:

• Swipe-to-Read™ the words to hear and playback the story at your own pace. 

• Auto Play to enjoy the narration. 

• Use the My Narration function to read and record the story yourself and customise your book. 

• Touch the pictures to hear different sound effects. 

• See special animation effects bringing the picture to life.

• Use the Colour Palette to paint each page!
