About

The Taniwha in Our Backyard Synopsis

Tui, his cousin Jennifer and their whanau go to the south Kaipara to visit her Uncle Rua and Auntie Mina. Exploring the area down to Muriwai, they learn about moa, kauri, Maui dolphins, kaitiakitanga (stewardship), geology and more. In the telling of their stories, a previously unknown taniwha (monster) takes centre stage!

Mixing English and Maori, established and newer ethnic groups, this new work in the Sharing Our Stories series connects children with the amazing environments and history around them.
