"This book is one you will read and read again and take something different away every time. Whakataukī and whakatauāki are grouped under different values. The originals of them are explained and the intent of them is explained in simple easy to understand terms. It feels like Nanny Hinemoa is sitting by the fireside having a conversation and telling her stories to us." — Robyn Hurliman, Whānau Leader - Year 5 and 6 team Ōwhata School

Dear Moko is written for all mokopuna, grandchildren, descendents. It is their very own book with stories from whakatauki and whakatauaki, our Māori proverbs. A treasure-book revealing new secrets every time you read it. Some stories will make you smile and laugh out loud. Others invite you to think about difficulties you are facing in a different way.

These are timeless words to live by, life lessons to inspire, for generations to come. Manaakitanga (love for each other), kaitiakitanga (respect for our planet), whanaungatanga (community and connectivity) and tino rangatiratanga (self-determination) bring to life our time-honoured values.

About the author:
