A sequel to Taming the Sun, this book contains four more Maori legends, including two well known legends (Ranginui and Paptuanuku and Hinemoa and Tutanekai) as well as two lesser known legends (The Battle of the Birds and Kae and the Whale).

Aimed at children 3-10 years, these myths are simply written and yet powerful. They're exciting and scary but each story is nicely resolved. Gavin allows the essence of the original myths to remain while also re-telling them for a new generation of children.

3-10yrs.
