Te Taniwha i Warewaretia - The Forgotten Taniwha

As the taniwha Ngākau Pono sleeps, big machines come, tall buildings rise and aeroplanes take off and land. Ngākau Pono has been forgotten by his people, until something happens and he begins to stir...

Trailblazing Māori artist Robyn Kahukiwa's picture book about the forgotten taniwha Ngākau Pono, meaning 'Loyal Heart', is now available in this bilingual Māori-English edition.

E hia rau tau nei a Ngākau Pono e tiaki ana i tōna iwi. Heoi anō, nō te wehenga atu o tōna iwi i te pā, ka ahatia?

Ngākau Pono has been looking after his people for hundreds of years. But what happens when his people leave the pā?

A beautiful bilingual children's story about culture loss and rediscovery by one of Aotearoa's foremost artists.
