The perfect first language book to teach te reo Maori
Maria Gill, Kids Books NZ
The book is user-friendly with both the Maori and English nouns beside each illustration. Another nice touch is that on each spread are common phrases to be used with tamariki, such as on the bedroom page are the phrases, 'Kei te tiwekaweka tenei ruma! This room is messy’ and 'Me tuku i nga tautapu takaro ki hea? Where should the toys go?’ as well as phrases that can use other kupu from the theme, such as on the emotions page the phrases are, 'Kei te pehea koe? How are you?’ and ‘Ka nui taku harikoa. I’m so happy.’ Perfect resource for all early learning services, homes and all ages.

Ka mau te wehi! (Awesome.)
