A singalong bilingual picture book based around Tawhirimatea, the god of weather.
It meditates on the seasons and the magic of the universe - the wind, rain, sun, planting of seeds in the earth (Papatuanuku), the sky (Ranginui), the tides, family (whanau), sharing of food from the land and sea, storytelling, and the passing of time (day into night) as represented by the Matariki star sisters that light up the sky each night.
The included CD is sung first in English and then in te reo Maori. It is a reflection on the wonder of the universe, as witnessed at the time of Matariki, when the star cluster can be seen during the summer months in Aotearoa.
3-7yrs.
