Ngā Maunga o Tāmaki Makaurau by Michelle Wilson

The maunga of Tamaki Makaurau are worried. The natural world is changing – rivers are polluted, forests are shrinking, and the birds’ waiata are fading away.

While Kohukohunui and his fellow maunga keep watch, Naana gets her mokopuna onto the case. She teaches them about the mountains’ korero- stories spoken through the wind, sung by the birds, and shared in dancing shadows – and reminds them that humans have a responsibility as kaitiaki.

As the tamariki realise their own role in caring for the natural world, they know they must act. But can the kids get their parents off their screens, clean up the river, and help nature heal? Paperback 125 x 275 mm 48 pages
