Ngā Manu Tukutuku e Whitu o Matariki

Written by Calico McClintock | illustrated by Dominique Ford | translated into te reo Māori by Ngaere Roberts

This is the te reo Māori version of The Seven Kites of Matariki

It is a special time of year. A time when the whispering wind blows warm from the east, and a crescent moon rises in the wintry night sky. Seven little sisters make kites with eyes of seashells to celebrate the New Year. But that playful wind whips those kites away… kua tae mai a Matariki!
