<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>A classic edition of myths and legends, updated by leading Māori editor and writer filled with great stories that focus on spirits, monsters and human heroes<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Māori myths and legends have an important role in transmitting and regenerating traditional knowledge. Yet as Ross Calman points out in his introduction to this new edition, they are also simply great yarns - reflective of a time when telling and listening to stories was a key leisure activity in Māori society. FAVOURITE MĀORI LEGENDS is an invitation to enjoy over 30 of the most memorable legends, grouped into themes of the spirit world, patupaiarehe (ghosts), taniwha (legendary monsters), supernatural creatures, heroes and deeds of daring. Concise yet complete, these gripping stories are enlivened by the timeless illustrations of Roger Hart.
