Find out all about how New Zealand was made in this traditional Māori creation story. As the heroic Kupe and mythical octopus, Te Wheke, battle it out on the open seas, it’s impossible to tell who’ll be victorious. As the drama builds in this legend of good over evil, a new land is created, and the fascinating ancient Māori culture is explored.

Topaz/Band 13 books offer longer and more demanding reads for children to investigate and evaluate.
