Nanny Mihi’s medicine – Ngā rongoā a Nanny Mihi by Melanie Drewery, Māori translation by Kanapu Rangitauira, illustrated by Suzanne Simpson

Nanny Mihi’s grandchildren excitedly visit her every school holidays. Only this time they arrive with a cold …

Nanny takes the kids around the ngahere (forest) and garden, showing them plants that can make them feel better. They find kawakawa and make tea, mānuka to put in the bath and clear their stuffy noses, koromiko to help their headaches, and cabbage tree leaves to help with the cuts and scratches they get in the forest.

By the time they’re well, Nanny is tired and scratched from their foraging — and the kids know just what she needs!

This is the latest book in the popular Nanny Mihi series and features an all-new illustration style as well as a spread of information about the medicines growing around us.
