Description

Te Orokotīmatanga o te Ao is the story of the creation of the universe according to Māori. It begins with Io, the Supreme Being and the infinite state of nothingness before you are transported through aeons to the time of Ranginui (Sky Father) and Papatūānuku (Earth Mother). You are then introduced to some of their children who are the source and inspiration for the stories that follow.

Whether we believe in the existence of a higher being or not, most of us are curious to know what underpins the cultural differences amongst us.

Ngā Atua Māori is a series of graphic novellas designed to re-tell the traditional stories of New Zealand’s Māori people in an innovative and contemporary format.

This series also features synchronized text and audio in both the Māori and English languages, as well as the Swipe-to-Read™ function which allows the reader to hear and play back the story at their own pace.

Stunning

I am so grateful to the team of talented folk who put this book series together - being able to hear the stories in Te Reo & English along with the stunning graphics has helped my learning of Te Reo & Maori Storytelling deepen. I look forward to more beautiful storytelling & to delve deeper into the long ago story’s of our journey with the Gods...

This is very useful

I am a Chinese, always wanted to know a bit more about Maori culture and it's history. This is very helpful on not only learn the story, but also the pronunciation of Maori.
