He Paki Taonga i a Māui

He Paki Taonga i a Māui: He putunga kōrero mai i Te Moana-nui-a-Kiwa

This is the te reo edition of Maui's Taonga Tales: A Treasury of Stories from Aotearoa and the Pacific

This book’s lively stories tell the tales of some of the taonga held at Aotearoa New Zealand’s famous national museum, Te Papa, through appealing text and fantastic illustrations. 

The book’s pūkōrero, or story teller, is Māui, the great Pacific hero and trickster. The stories are from both long ago and recent times and have been chosen in consultation with Te Papa’s mātauranga Māori curators and the relevant iwi. Each story is told via illustrations created by young Māori artists. The book is linked to the TV series He Paki Taonga i a Māui, funded by Te Māngai Pāho.

This is a great gift or addition to your whānau bookshelf.
