Te-Ika-a-Māui - The Fish of Māui

The iconic Māori myth is now available as a bilingual Māori-English story, with Merimeri Penfold's beautiful translation of Peter Gossage’s much-loved text.

Peter Gossage’s famous Māori myth about discovering Aotearoa’s North Island is now a bilingual Māori-English edition, featuring Merimeri Penfold's translation.

Kahore nga tuakana o Māui i hiahia kia haere ia i to ratou taha ki te hi, he hae no ratou. Heoi ano, ka mau i a Māui atamai te ika whakamiharo katoa.

He putanga reo Māori–reo Pakeha o tenei tino pakiwaitara o Aotearoa.

Māui's jealous brothers don't want him to come fishing with them. But clever Māui catches the best fish of all.
