About the Book

The beloved Māori myth of Rona and the Moon comes to the 21st-century in English and Māori in Tim Tipene’s sensitive telling, strikingly illustrated by artist Theresa Reihana. Rona Moon gets angry with everyone until her ancestor Whaea Rona takes her to one side — or rather, to the Moon!
