About this listen
Peter Gossage’s memorable retellings of Māori oral myths have captivated the children of New Zealand for generations. With minimal yet evocative language, each has earned its place among the beloved classics of our literature.
These are exciting, magical tales of adventure and intrigue. Several feature the remarkable culture hero Māui – the quick-witted and the trickster – whose exploits include slowing the sun in its course across the sky, fishing up the North Island/Te-Ika-a-Māui, discovering the secret of fire and his attempt to trick the goddess of death and become immortal.
Māui and Other Māori Legends contains eight essential stories. In this volume you will find timeless favourites such as How Māui Found his Mother, Battle of the Mountains, Pania of the Reef and many more.
The treasury includes:
How Māui Found his Mother
How Māui Found his Father and the Magic Jawbone
The Fish of Māui
How Māui Slowed the Sun
How Māui Found the Secret of Fire
How Māui Defied the Goddess of Death
Battle of the Mountains
Pania of the Reef
