Reach for this book when your child starts asking big questions about where they come from or how different types of people ended up living in the same place. It is a gentle, informative introduction to the layered history of New Zealand, tracing the path from the earliest Polynesian navigators to the arrival of British colonists and the birth of modern Kiwi culture. This book addresses the fundamental emotional need for belonging and understanding one's place within a larger historical tapestry. Through the lens of New Zealand's synthesis of Māori and European traditions, it explores how identity is formed by both the land we inhabit and the ancestors who came before us. It is perfect for children aged 5 to 9 who are curious about world cultures, indigenous history, and the way different customs can blend together to create something entirely new and unique.
